Then there’s this: He was committed to a mental-health facility earlier this year after “hearing voices” and making “threats to shoot up” a military base. He was also a firearms instructor in the Army Reserve. Early reports say he’s 40 years old and recently out of a job. In the weeks ahead, the life of alleged gunman Robert Card - still just a “person of interest” in the case - will be closely scrutinized. Americans are by now grimly familiar with such scenes. At least 18 people were shot dead and 13 injured at a restaurant and bowling alley by a perpetrator who is still on the loose.
The full horror of Wednesday’s mass shooting in Lewiston, Maine, will take time to unspool.
