All explosives have been removed from the booby-trapped apartment of James Holmes - the man accused of shooting dead 12 people at a movie theatre in Aurora. Bomb experts used a robot to enter the Colorado apartment, which had been rigged with 30 explosive devices. The authorities say if detonated, they could have blown up the entire three-story building. The last devices were safely removed on Saturday (July 21) afternoon. They were driven to a remote area near Aurora and detonated in controlled explosions. As the police investigation continues, the authorities are working to preserve any evidence in the apartment. They hope it may shed light on the motives of a crime that's stunned the nation.
