Attorney: Armed Movie Patron Meant No Harm

A defense attorney says a Westlake man who brought a gun, ammunition and several knives to a showing of the latest Batman movie did so for protection and out of fear following the fatal Colorado shootings last month. Matthew Bruce says 37-year-old Scott Smith had no intention of causing harm or panic. Smith is expected to be indicted on weapons charges.
