Lewiston, Maine shooting kills, injures dozens: Police

A manhunt is underway Thursday morning for a gunman who opened fire at a bowling alley and a bar in Lewiston, Maine, on Wednesday killing and injuring dozens, sending the state’s second-largest city into chaos.

The Lewiston Police Department said it is looking for 40-year-old Robert Card as a person of interest and warned he should be considered armed and dangerous.

Authorities ordered residents and business owners to stay inside and off the streets.

The Maine State Police have expanded the shelter-in-place advisory and school closings to include the town of Bowdoin as more than 100 investigators work to locate Card.

The exact number of people killed and injured has not been confirmed on the record by law enforcement. The Associated Press is reporting at least 16 were killed.

Police are expected to provide an update on the shooting and subsequent manhunt at 10:30 a.m. ET Thursday. NewsNation will stream it live.
