\"Robert<\/p>\n

Robert Card<\/strong> — the man accused of going on a shooting spree in Maine, killing at least 18 people and injuring over a dozen more — has been found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.<\/p>\n

Card’s body was just found in the woods in Maine and officials are expected to share more details in a news conference scheduled for 7 PM PT.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As we reported, a manhunt was underway for 40-year-old Card after he opened fire<\/strong> at a bowling alley and a bar in Lewiston, Maine Wednesday night … with some of the people at the bowling alley being a part of a youth bowling league.<\/p>\n

Wednesday night’s shooting is now infamously cemented as one of the 10 deadliest mass shootings in American history.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A shelter-in-place order was in effect following the mass shooting, with Maine Governor Janet Mills <\/strong>urging residents not to approach Card if they saw him. Schools in the area were also shut down as the hunt continued.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Army Reservist is reportedly a trained firearms instructor<\/strong> with 20 years of military experience, working as a petroleum supply specialist in the Reserve with no combat deployments — enlisting in 2002.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to multiple media outlets, he recently reported hearing voices and had even threatened to shoot up a National Guard Base in Saco, ME. He also was reportedly committed to a mental institution this summer but was released after a couple of weeks.<\/p>\n

Maine’s relaxed gun laws have become a big talking point<\/strong> in the wake of the horrific shooting — the state doesn’t have a red flag law that lets family members directly ask a judge to take guns away from someone who shows signs of being a threat to others.<\/p>\n
