Halloween decorations for spooky season were up in the Maine city of Lewiston but the community’s streets were mostly quiet on Thursday, a day after a gunman killed 18 people at a local bowling alley and nearby bar in an act of horror that was all too real.
Police roadblocks prevented access to some areas of the town – part of a partial lockdown announced after the 40-year-old murder suspect, Robert Card, fled the scene, leaving his car several miles away near a boat dock. He is still on the run as hundreds of police search for him.
