More than 1,000 pay tribute to Maine s mass shooting victims on day of prayer, reflection and hope – Morning Journal

Residents of Lewiston are returning to work the morning after coming together to mourn those lost in Maine’s worst mass shooting. More than 1,000 people gathered for an evening vigil Sunday. The names of the 18 killed were read aloud at Sunday’s event. Authorities say 40-year-old Robert Card opened fire Wednesday at a bowling alley and then a bar, leaving 18 dead and 13 injured. He was found dead Friday of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. The Rev Todd Little from the First United Pentecostal Church of Lewiston spoke at Sunday’s vigil of how that diverse community is now sharing “brokenness, worry, fear and loss” because of the shooting. But he vowed the community is bigger than the tragedy and will emerge stronger.
