Manning calls to console Aurora shooting victims

Posted: Updated:
DENVER -

Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning is calling hospital victims of the Colorado theater shooting to lift their spirits.  

A spokeswoman for the Medical Center of Aurora says that Manning spoke one-on-one by phone on Saturday afternoon with several patients brought there after the shooting.   Fifty-eight people were wounded after a gunman clad in riot gear opened fire in a crowded theater early Friday where "The Dark Knight Rises" was being shown.

Twelve people have died in the massacre.  

The four-time MVP signed with the Broncos this year after missing the 2011 season due to injury and being released by the Indianapolis Colts.
