Maine Shooting Timeline: How Manhunt Unfolded as Robert Card Found Dead

The suspect in the Maine mass shooting that killed 18 people has been found dead after a days-long search.

Robert Card, 40, an army reservist who allegedly opened fire on a bowling alley and separate restaurant in Lewiston on Wednesday evening, has been found dead from a suspected self-inflicted gunshot wound, Maine Governor Janet Mills has confirmed.

"I stand before you tonight to report that Maine State Police have located the body of Robert Card in Lisbon. He is dead," Mills said at a press conference on Friday evening.

"Like many Maine people, I breathe a sigh of relief knowing that Robert Card is no longer a threat to anyone else. I know there are many people who share that sentiment. I also know that his death may not bring solace to the victims of this tragedy," Mills added. Newsweek has contacted Gov. Janet Mills' office for comment via telephone.
