cressida Posted October 28, 2023 Author Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-67247726 A man suspected of killing 18 people in a shooting in Maine has been found dead after a three-day manhunt, police say. Robert Card, 40, was found dead from an apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound, Maine Commissioner of Public Safety Michael Sauschuck said.
