Apparently shooter still on the loose. SIP extended to Bowdoin and Lisbon.

We remain in lockdown, and law enforcement teams continue their search. The shelter-in-place mandate was extended to the towns of Bowdoin and Lisbon, Maine, earlier this morning. We expect to learn more from a City of Lewiston press conference at 10:30 {Eastern} this morning.

It's extremely sparsely populated up there. If this guy has military training he might plan on hanging out in the wilderness.

That horrible man had threatened to shoot up the National Guard facility next to their school. Will we ever have peace of mind in this country?

As long as a generation of low-brow losers with spurious grievances can be convinced to jump at shadows and then shoot at them, this is going to keep happening.

Who made several separate attacks and fled the area to hide out in the middle of nowhere.

These nuts rarely hit and run, let alone twice.
