AURORA, Colo. - A couple who survived being wounded in the movie theater shooting now plan to marry exactly one year after that attack.

Eugene Han and Kirstin Davis were both in the theater on July 20, 2012 for the opening night screening of the latest Batman film. Eighteen minutes into that film, a gunman opened fire.

12 people were killed and 58 others were wounded. Han pulled Davis from her seat to safety but was shot twice, once in the hip and once in the knee. Davis suffered minor injuries that she described as scratches.

“It was his idea actually," Davis said about getting married on July 20, 2013. "He was like, let’s just do it. You know, let’s make it a better day for us."

4. Is this the guy that put himself between his girl and the shooter?

I remember commenting at the time that any man that does that is a good candidate for life partnership.
