Authori-ties say a Cleveland-area man has been arrested for carrying a gun, ammunition and several knives into a showing of the The Dark Knight Rises.

Police in Westlake say a manager was suspicious of the man and his satchel when he entered the theatre for the 10 p.m. Saturday showing of the movie.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports that an offduty police officer searched the bag and found the weapons. The man was arrested without incident. His home was searched Monday night.

The suspect's name has not been released.

A 24-year-old man was charged with killing 12 people and wounding 58 at a showing of the The Dark Knight Rises in Aurora, Colorado, on July 20.
