There are also reports that Card could have escaped on a jet ski.
Maine police updated their bulletin on Thursday morning – Robert Card is no longer thought to be a firearms instructor.
Earlier reporting…
The Maine State Police identified Robert Card as a person of interest in a horrifying mass shooting that occurred at two popular locations in Lewiston, Maine: Schemengees Bar & Grille Restaurant and the Sparetime Recreation.
On Wednesday night, Card opened fire at both a bowling alley and a bar in Lewiston, Maine. The horrific event resulted in at least 22 fatalities and left 50 or more injured, plunging the state’s second-largest city into turmoil, CNN reported.
“Law Enforcement is attempting to locate Robert Card 4/4/1983, as a person of interest regarding the mass shooting at Schemengees Bar and Sparetime Recreation this evening. CARD should be considered armed and dangerous. Please contact law enforcement if you are aware of his whereabouts.”
According to unverified information from the Maine Information and Analysis Center:
Robert Card, born on April 4, 1983, was last known to be operating a white 2013 Subaru Outback with a black bumper, registered in Maine under the plate 9246PD. His last known address is 941 Meadow Road, Bowdoin, Maine.
Card, a trained firearms instructor, is believed to be affiliated with the Army Reserve, stationed out of Saco, Maine. What makes the situation even more disquieting is that law enforcement officials have revealed that Card had recently reported experiencing mental health issues, including hearing voices and making threats to carry out a shooting at the National Guard Base in Saco.
Even more concerning is the fact that Card had been committed to a mental health facility for a fortnight in the summer of 2023, after which he was released.
Law enforcement has warned that Card should be considered armed and extremely dangerous. Extreme caution should be exercised if there is any contact made with him or the vehicle he is believed to be operating.
The Maine State Police are leading the investigation, with support from the FBI, and are urging anyone with information to come forward immediately. Communities in and around Lewiston are on high alert.
According to an update last night, the vehicle of interest was found in Lisbon. Officials are urging the residents in Lisbon to stay vigilant. Card is still at large.
This is a developing story. We will update this article as soon as additional details become available.
“I guess he didn’t want to show up.”
If he was/is the shooter.
He's gonna shave and get some face work and a new ID and just go live anonymously in some large city where nobody knows everyone else.
Or, surprise, he'll undergo anesthesia for his face job and just not wake up, or they'll dispose of him in some other way.
Hypothetically, mind you. No less plausible than freezing to death in the woods in New England by choice.
The former…the latter can get a job in academia. Or government.
He made threats to an army base & was not immediately locked up!!!?? Why?
That was in 2016... oddly enough today’s date!
Wise, however, I will speculate that Maine doesn't boarder Massachusetts.
I heard there was a retired police chief at the bowling alley, with his granddaughter.
Am sad it happened, but relieved it was lower body count.
Reporting, is not the skill it once was.
I guess so.
Headshake.
Yep, exactly.
Thanks!
I need more coffee!

He started at the bowling alley and then drove South very quickly to the bar. Then he traveled further South to Lisbon, Maine. Either he picked up another car there, or possibly had a boat. There are a lot of small bodies of water in those parts.
Did not report...noticed him because of the Rambo camo...thought it would be too obvious for him to be on the run like that.
It’s full of Mass-holes................
Probably headed south to be the next Florida Man.
Or Delaware because Delaware residents seem to get away with everything.
Here is the bowling alley:
Here is the bar:
It is a big bar by central Maine standards. There must be 20 pool tables there.
The Bar is Closed...
Clean Up aisle 7.
His last known address is 941 Meadow Road, Bowdoin, Maine.....
Bowdoin? Wonder if he had any nihilistic college courses in his background.
I’m betting he was doing mushrooms............Seems to be a revival in that drug’s popularity nowadays.
