Army Reservist Suspected in Maine Killings Taken for Evaluation by Police Following Erratic Behavior

A U.S. Army reservist, Robert Card, suspected of killing at least 18 people in Maine, had been taken by police for a mental health evaluation in mid-July after exhibiting erratic behavior during military training at West Point. A warrant has been issued for Card's arrest on eight counts of murder, with more expected as additional victims are identified. The shooting occurred at a bar and a bowling alley, causing panic among patrons. The suspect is still at large, and schools and public buildings in the area have closed as a precaution. The incident highlights the ongoing debate around gun laws and mental health in the United States.
