President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden will visit Maine this week to offer their condolences to the Lewiston community after the deadliest mass shooting in state history.
President Joe Biden will travel to Maine later this week to mourn with the community of Lewiston after 18 people were killed in the deadliest mass shooting in state history, the White House said Wednesday. Thirteen people were injured in the Oct. 25 shootings at a bar and a bowling alley.
The alleged gunman, Robert Card, 40, was found dead of an apparent suicide after a dayslong manhunt that led officials to cancel school and order residents to stay indoors. Investigators have yet to establish a motive but have increasingly focused on the mental health of Card, who was a firearms instructor. Authorities said this week that Card's family had brought their concerns about his deteriorating mental health to the local sheriff five months before the deadly rampage.
Biden was alerted about the shooting as he hosted a White House state dinner honoring the bonds between the United States and Australia. He later stepped out of the event to speak by telephone with Maine Gov. Janet Mills and the state's representatives in Congress.
