AURORA, Colo. (AP) - Relatives have identified more victims from the Colorado movie theater shooting.

Sparks man Jonathan Blunk was identified by his mother-in-law, Elizabeth Ramirez. In addition to Ramirez, a number of victims' family members are talking about loved ones lost in the shooting.

Six-year-old Veronica Moser was killed, her great-aunt, Annie Dalton, tells The Associated Press.

Another victim is 27-year-old Matt McQuinn, says family attorney Rob Scott from Dayton, Ohio.

Veronica's mother, Ashley Moser, 25, is in critical condition with a bullet in the throat and in the abdomen, says Dalton, who is Ashley's aunt.

And Scott says McQuinn was killed after diving in front of his girlfriend and her older brother to shield them from the gunfire.

Others identified by relatives include John Larimer, 27, of Crystal Lake, Ill., who was stationed with the Navy at Buckley Air Force Base, 23-year-old Micayla Medek, 27-year-old Alex Sullivan and Jessica Ghawi, 24.
