Hours after a mass shooting in lewiston, maine, home to bates college. It left at least 20 believed dead and dozens more injured. Law enforcement releasing images of a person of interest, just holding what appears to be an assault style rifle entering a Bowling Alley and a second location. Tonight horror in lewiston, maine. The only thing that we heard was this really loud bang. And a lot of us thought like a bowling ball kind of like smashed on the ground or something. At least 20 people are believed dead and dozens more injured in shootings in at least two locations in the town just 35 miles north of portland, maine, to respond to the town of lewiston for two active shooter locations. All available units at approximately 656 this evening. A couple of shooting incidents occurred here with multiple casualties in the city of lewiston. The place is targeted. A pool hall called manges bar and a Bowling Alley. Spare time recreation. Police say the person of interest, 40 year old robert card, seen here in these grainy surveillance images armed with an assault style weapon on card, is considered armed and dangerous. He is a person of interest, however, and thats what well label him at moving forward until that changes, if people see him, they should not approach card or make contact with him in any way. Authorities are still on the hunt for card, who so far remains at large. The fbi sending in aviation units to help in the search. Lewiston police releasing this photo of cards white subaru which authorities have now traced to a location in lisbon, maine. Maine state police urging nearby residents to stay inside their homes with doors locked earlier tonight, i spoke with riley dumont, who was with her family inside the Bowling Alley. She says a kids league was underway when shots rang out. At how many shots did you hear fired . Um. Oh, gosh. I would probably say like maybe 4 or 5. And you said it felt like it went on forever. Yeah, it felt like it lasted a lifetime. Um, riley says her father, ron dumont, a retired Police Officer, leapt into action. My dads been a Police Officer for 40 years, and he literally just went into action in that moment and just kind of corralled us all and made sure we were all safe and that the scene he was waiting for the cops to walk through the front door and he put protection in front of us and tables and like a big bench that the kids were hiding behind. I was scooched on the floor with my daughter and my mom and a couple of other kids and parents and you are convinced your father helped save people . Yeah. What were the sights and the sounds as the gunfire is underway . I just remember people sobbing and crying and everyone was people around me were not screaming, but like whimpering. And my mom and i were just trying to keep everybody quiet and, you know, consoling each other. But i really like the sounds that i heard were only closest to me. And then the gunshots sound, and thats all i remember hearing. Were learning more tonight about Law Enforcements main person of interest, robert card. Sources telling abc news card had a history of military service and is a firearms instructor. Our sources also tell abc news he spent two weeks this past summer at a Mental Health facility after he reported hearing voices. Card also reportedly made threats to shoot up a National Guard facility. We have literally hundreds of Police Officers working around the state of maine tonight. The president speaking with maines governor as the nation grapples with yet another mass shooting. And joining me now, abcs Senior Investigative correspondent aaron katersky. Aaron, youve been following this all evening. Police put out a photo of a person of interest, a 40 year old robert card. And youve been digging into his background. What can you tell us . Weve learned that hes from bowdoin, maine, and he has a military history and was a firearms instructor. Thats one worrying detail because he obviously knows his way around a gun and the authorities believe he is armed and dangerous and hes potentially putting people in harms way. And he was also had an interaction with a Mental Health facility this summer. He did this past summer. He spent two weeks at a Mental Health facility somewhere in maine after he reported hearing voices and after the authorities were told said that he made some threats to a National Guard base in saco, maine, where he may have some military ties. Those things put him in a Mental Health facility for two weeks of treatment. He was discharged. But now the authorities are looking to see whether this shooting may have been the act of someone who did have some Mental Health issues. But so far , card has only been labeled a person of interest. And we spent the evening listening to s as the shots rag out somewhere around 7 00 pm. And we know that there were at least two locations as one was a Bowling Alley, we spoke to eyewitnesses who reported hearing those gunshots and there was a bar and grill as well. But the police pretty quickly put out a photo of him with with an assault style weapon. It shows you how worried the authorities are about the potential for ongoing danger and why they felt the need to warn the public to stay away from this person of interest if they somehow encounter him. But also just to stay indoors because they didnt know where the next victim might come from. The authorities were able to track his vehicle, a white subaru, not in lewiston, but in nearby lisbon, maine. And put people in that community on a shelter in place order as well. Schools have already been canceled and as a precaution because they just want to make sure people are not placed in harms way by a very dangerous person of interest. And federal authorities also got involved. We were talking about hundreds of Law Enforcement officers heading to the scene, as well as the fact that the president of the United States and the attorney general were very quickly briefed on the situation and kept up to date. What does that tell you about the gravity of what was happening . It was evident almost from the outset that this is bloody and that the carnage is extensive. The president was briefed quickly, as was the attorney general of the United States, and all manner of federal agencies, the fbi, the secret service, customs, the marshals, everybody. Atf sent resources into maine to assist primarily with the manhunt. But then with some of the investigative work. And if the multiple scenes hold and if they are as as brutal as some of our Law Enforcement sources have described, theres going to be a lot of forensic work ahead. And we spoke to the eyewitness this who told us that a Youth Bowling League was underway at one of those facilities and that it was packed with people, families. The witness we spoke to had a daughter who was 11 years old. What does that tell you about the types of people who might be caught up in the crossfire . It could be anybody. It could be kids. It could be families as old, young. It doesnt seem right now like a particular group of people were targeted because these are places frequented by everybody in the community as eyewitnesses have described it to us. And so theres no telling why this may have happened, but authorities are going to want to get to the bottom of it. And we know youll stay on top of this every twist and turn on this investigation. Thanks, on this investigation. Thanks, aaron. Katersky well be your tracks. Like the tens of thousands of people who were diagnosed with certain hpvrelated cancers.

There are, however, those willing to fight for the past, even if it takes superhero strength. Heres nightlines ashan singh. Reporter mark ruffalo. As alist as it gets. Known for his role as a smashing superhero on screen im always angry. Reporter in the avengers movies. And his critically acclaimed performance in the 2016 Academy Award best picture anymore spotlight. Are you telling me that the Catholic Church removed legal documents from that courthouse . Reporter hes also no stranger to social activism. How come theres so many problems with frack drilling . Reporter lately hes on a new mission, and this one literally hits close to home. Hes hoping to save this Historic Presbyterian Church in his new york city neighborhood from demolition. At what point did you decide to get involved . I could be selling a product line. A lot of actors do that. But for me, this is what feels like i should be doing. Reporter ruffalo now partnering with celebrities like matt damon and director kenneth lon lonergan to raise money for the Presbyterian Church on manha manhattans Upper West Side in need of extensive repairs. It just has this incredible history, and you can feel it when youre in here. A building like this carries the spirit and the culture of what has happened here over the history of its lifetime. Reporter in recent years, its also been the home to the russian arts theater troupe. This is the only oscar we need. Reporter just uptown from the bright lights of broadway, its small theaters like this that often give residents Affordable Access to the arts. This place is a Huge Community for us, for independent theatermakers. Reporter it was built in 1889 and declared a historic landmark in 2010. Like many old buildings, west park is in need of tens of millions of dollars of repairs. With their congregation membership in a freefall, the money to restore it is hard to come by. The building needs work. Its like every other brown stoun stone in the Upper West Side. 15 of the buildings have scaffolding in front of them. Reporter despite landmark status, the building is in jeopardy after the congregation filed a hardship application with the Landmark Preservation commission of new york city, or lpc. If it is granted, it will be sold to the developers. Why is it important for you to stick your neck out for this place and fight this fight . I live around the corner. I was at 18 years old that starving artist who needed a home like this. These places give kids direction, they give them opportunity. Art boosts the economy. This city runs on art. This is a breeding ground for young artists. Its not just the historical value of the place, which is immensely important. Its also what it gives to the community. Without the past, we dont have a guide to the future. We spend our lives in buildings. It is incumbent upon us, in my opinion, to maintain and retain those that have meaning to us. Otherwise, culturally, were completely bereft. Reporter the controversy over whether to save iconic sites playing out across the nation. Just days ago, the city of los angeles began the process to designate the Brentwood Home maryland monroe overdosed and died in as a cultural monument. But other Historic Community spaces facing the wrecking ball. In the bay area, the circle star theater, a place where the likes of Frank Sinatra and Richard Pryor performed, was demolished. In oklahoma city, the iconic egg church, once a gathering point for families following the 1995 bombing, destroyed last year after the city failed to make it a landmark. In philadelphia, the demolition of st. Laurentiis roman Catholic Church built by polish immigrants in 1882 began last year. West park church could face the same fate. After the building was landmarked, the membership of the church dropped pretty precipitously. Because it had become far less about the church and more about issues related to the building itself. Reporter roger lee says now the financial burden that could be as high as 50 million in repairs is the responsibility of the small congregation. There were grandiose commitments made on the part of elected officials about the amount of money that could be raised so that it would not fall exclusively on the shoulders of a small and struggling church. None of that money ever materialized. Reporter who should be responsible for maintaining these spaces once landmark status is granted . There are things the city could do to assist land marks, particularly churches like west park. Reporter abc news reached out to the city and the lpc, and they said the hardship application is under review. But some experts believe the cost for repairs are less. You need to test every stone. They have not done that. It would be similar to going to the doctor because youve got a rash on your hand and the doctor saying, oh, im sorry, were going to have to euthanize you. We have an unparalleled sense of authenticity in new orleans. That is in large part because of our Historic Building stock. Reporter in some cities, preserving their history is in the fabric of their identity. We have 19 Million People that come to experience our city every year because were such a beautiful historic city. Reporter new orleans native, actor wendell pierce, better mown known for his work in the hbo drama the wire. His childhood days spent in a historic African American neighborhood of Pontchartrain Park helped define him. This neighborhood was born in the 1950s as a concession, separate but equal. It was this really wonderful place to grow up because it takes a village to raise a child, and we were a true village, true community, really. The best of the american dream. Reporter pierce rallied to save his hometown after Hurricane Katrina drowned new orleans. Brick by brick, house by house, block by block. And we brought it back. Because it was too important to let go. Reporter in 2020, residents like pierce scored a big win when Pontchartrain Park became designated on the National Register of historic places. We dont preserve everything. We preserve those things that are of great importance and will service us now and in the future. If we forget where we come from, then we are doomed to fail. Reporter for mark ruffalo, he hopes he and other west park supporters have the same success. You called this a symbolic fight for new york city, what do you mean by that . Its a fight about preserve ing our connection to each other. Theres nothing wrong with development. We need development in the city. But not at the cost of places like this.
