The man said he scrambled down the length of the alley, sliding into the pin area and climbing up to hide in the machinery.
As a man opened fire at a restaurant and a bowling alley in Lewiston, Maine, one survivor of the deadly rampage says he raced down a bowling lane and hid within the machinery behind the pins to escape the gunman.Harrowing stories began to emerge early Thursday as police searched for a person of interest, identified as 40-year-old Robert Card, after the rampage at Schemengees Bar and Grille and at Sparetime Recreation, a bowling alley about 4 miles away.
According to a Maine law enforcement bulletin seen by CBS News, Card is a trained firearms instructor believed to be in the Army reserve stationed out of Saco, Maine.The document, circulated to law enforcement officials, said Card had been committed to a mental health facility for two weeks in the summer of 2023. It did not provide details about his treatment or condition but said Card had reported 'hearing voices and threats to shoot up' the military base.
