“The bowling alley where Robert Card allegedly shot and killed 7 people has a sign on the front door announcing the premises are gun free.
The location, formerly called Sparetime Recreation, is now called Just-in-Time Bowling Alley.
John Lott Jr.’s Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC) noted that the sign says, “We kindly ask that you refrain from bringing firearms in this building and we would appreciate it if you left them in your vehicle. Please keep our atmosphere family friendly.”
Within a mile or so when he ditched the car that night.
He was almost certainly dead the night of murders.
“The body of a deceased Robert Card was found Friday night near a recycling area in Lisbon.
Police called a hasty press conference at Lewiston City Hall Friday night to announce the news. By then, several people had heard that Card was found dead and that the threat posed by the accused mass killer was over.
Police had been searching for the 40–year-old Bowdoin man since Wednesday night when he allegedly gunned down more than 30 people, killing 18 of them, at two different locations in Lewiston.
Some witnesses reported that Card was found dead wearing the same clothes he had on when he went on the shooting rampage at Spare Time Recreation and Schemengees in Lewiston. Several others said it appeared Card had died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Police later confirmed the details.
Those who live in the area said Card’s body was found near a recycling center at which he used to work. The area is just a short distance from the boat launch where Card’s Subaru was found Wednesday night.
Several people in Lisbon had reported a sudden surge in police activity in town around 8 p.m., as local, state and federal police continued the three-day manhunt. At about 9 p.m., Maine State Police called the press conference at Lewiston City Hall to announce the news.
“So happy this nightmare is over,” said John Riordan, who lives near the scene, “and hopefully the families can get some closure. It will be nice to get back to some state of normalcy.””

My son and his girlfriend are boarding a plane to Portland Maine tonight. Bunch of things they wanted to do got cancelled because of this idiot.
From accounts his problems began when he was fitted with Hearing Aids from the Federal Government aka VA...
Anyone else notice how it used to be serial killers that we always had popping up, but now it’s mass shooters. We went from one to the other. Weird.
Someone called it in a thread last night. They win one internet.
I was reading the thread here when this first happened and why were the initial reports 22 confirmed dead and 40-50 injured and then 2 days later it’s 18 dead and 13 injured? How do the numbers go down?
Love the ASL gal - she’s the star of the show.
And he took eighteen people, who were out having a good time, with him. SMH.
Am relieved that he can’t hurt anyone anymore. May all of the survivors and the loved ones of those who were murdered and his family be comforted by our Heavenly Father.
The sign language person is very expressive.
Not to disparage law enforcement, but again they arrived after the fact. The first line of defense is the individual. If Maine had permitless carry, the severity of the situation may have been lessened.
Chalk up another failure of our mental health professionals.
I got a notification on my phone from one of the commie news services using the words “gunman” and “manhunt.”
GOOD, we won’t have to feed him!
How convenient.
Shame it’s a head shot.
The guy was very normal until recently.
I wouldn’t be surprised to learn he has some giant tumor in his head.

So tired, so weary of the mind-numbing impact of these tragic events...My prayers are up for the victims and their families. They are in my thoughts every time I leave my house with "Mr. Sig" along for the ride.
