With little advance warning, Batman star Christian Bale visited survivors of the Colorado theater shooting at The Medical Center of Aurora, then stopped by a community memorial for the victims of the attack that killed 12 people and injured 58.

Humble and dressed casually in a black t-shirt and jeans, he thanked the staff, shook hands and agreed to have his photo taken with several employees.

He previously issued a heartfelt written statement saying, “Words cannot express the horror that I feel. I cannot begin to truly understand the pain and grief of the victims and their loved ones, but my heart goes out to them.”

Carey Rottman, one of the 58 people injured in Friday’s shooting, posted a photo of himself with Bale on his Facebook page.
