Lewiston Maine Police Department released the photo of the mass shooter, Robert Card.
The Maine State Police have 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.
“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:
Card, a trained firearms instructor, is believed to be affiliated with the Army Reserve, stationed out of Saco, ME. 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.
