President Joe Biden ordered all US flags to be flown at half-mast
US police have searched in forests, waterways and small towns for an Army reservist who they say killed 18 people and wounded 13 in a mass shooting at a bowling alley and a bar in Maine.
The suspect, Robert Card, is considered armed and dangerous and should not be approached, authorities said at a news conference. Eight murder warrants were issued for Card, 40, after authorities identified eight of the victims. Ten more will likely be issued once the names of the rest of the dead are confirmed, said Maine State Police spokesman William Ross.
Brandon said he scrambled down the length of the alley, sliding into the pin area and climbing up to hide in the machinery. They stayed at home but he estimates there were probably several dozen young bowlers, aged 4 to 18, along with their parents, in the facility. Mr Poulin said his brother was there and shepherded some of the children outside when the shooting began.
