If he's been named I think it's okay. Is it the page with the big fish?
That is the page I found and while I was looking, it popped up technical difficulties. Content is now no longer available.

Police chopper near high school but I think focus may be near river.

Just my thoughts.

Saw that page too. Only two posts and not much info other than what you mentioned about him retiring from Army.

May not ever know what triggered him but nothing explains or excuses this mayhem.

That's assuming he's local (or they're local; I still wonder if there's more than one shooter). They may not be.
Witnesses commonly believe there is more than one shooter, and it almost never is.

Absolutely sickening. Going to follow this one closely. I'm surprised they haven't announced a shooter ID yet.

Listening in on the scanner. Nothing concrete yet. Helicopter is up in the air.

EBS shelter-in-place order just sounded over the livestream from WCSH (NewsCenter Maine).

They appear to know it, but don’t want to release it at this stage.

Yeah witness memories can be very fallible (through no fault of the witnesses, memories are just not always the most reliable, and witnessing so much trauma doesn't help). I'd be shocked if it was more than one shooter to be honest. It's really rare

Guess we wait and see. I think my gut is right on this but to be fair, I saw his FB before it was deleted.

JMO I've started wondering if it's possible the shooter was holding one or more people hostage since the shooting had been actively going on a long time, longer than necessary to kill 16 people and injure 60+ IMO but at this point I think that's pretty much ruled out?

NBC News updated the death count to 22.


Just my thoughts.

"This is a very active and dynamic situation. The image of at least one active killer has been released by police. He is armed with a tactical rifle," Jim Cavanaugh, an NBC News law enforcement contributor and a former special agent in the ATF, said in a text message.

"Law Enforcement is now swarming the area attempting to locate, isolate and eliminate the active killer or killers," he said.

22 dead, 50-60 injured after shootings in Lewiston, Maine; suspect at large

Classes are closed tomorrow.
Why can't they find the guy who's driving the white Subaru?

CNN: a children’s event was happening at the bowling alley.
