Authorities Fear Suspected Maine Mass Shooter Escaped on Jet Ski After Ditching Car at Boat Dock
Police believe the suspected gunman behind the Maine mass shooting may have used a watercraft to flee.
Police believe the suspected gunman who shot 18 people dead in a Maine bowling alley and bar may have used a watercraft to flee investigators after his harrowing attack.
Robert Card, an Army reservist and firearms instructor, was named a person of interest after the shooter used an AR-15-style rifle to open fire inside the Sparetime Recreation bowling alley at about 7 p.m. Wednesday before going to Schemengees Bar and Grille.

RadarOnline.com has learned that Card registered a 2019 Sea Doo jet ski in his name in June, just months before targeting the local businesses for his vicious killing spree.
At least 18 people were killed in cold blood and 13 people injured.
Authorities found his abandoned white Subaru Outback at a boat dock in Miller Park and they believe he may have boarded his jet ski before switching vehicles to a blue Chevy Suburban, Daily Mail reported.
He later abandoned his white car at a boat dock.
Police said the blue Chevy with a Maine registration plate 6625ZD believed to be carrying Card crossed into Massachusetts on the I-93 this morning. Local-owned shops, banks, schools, and colleges have shut their doors while Card remains on the loose.
Prior to the attack, the suspect had been committed to a mental health facility for two weeks this past summer after allegedly "hearing voices and threats to shoot up" a military base.
