In the USA, the Commissioner of the Department of Public Maine State Safety Michael Soschak said mass shooting suspect Robert Card may have been motivated by his mental health.
On the evening of October 25, Card opened fire with a machine gun in three neighborhoods in Lewiston. Authorities reported 18 dead and 13 wounded.
The shooter, Robert Card, was a weapons instructor, according to ABC News.
Card's body was later found — he committed suicide.
Law enforcement does not have access to information about Card's involuntary treatment, but Commissioner Soschak thinks there is clearly a «mental health component» to it. He added that Card's family is cooperating with investigative authorities.
