Maine police alerted about veiled threats from Robert Card weeks before mass shooting

Law enforcement officials in Maine received a statewide alert about “veiled threats” made by US Army reservist Robert Card — weeks before he opened fire at a local bowling alley and a bar, killing 18 people and wounding 13 others.

Sagadahoc County Sheriff Joel Merry said he sent deputies to Card’s home in September after the US Army Reserve tipped him off that the firearms instructor had issued “veiled threats” against an Army base — but couldn’t find him.

Merry then sent an “awareness alert” about Card to all of the state’s law enforcement agencies.

Saco Police Chief Jack Clements said he even deployed cops to patrol the local Army base where Card, a veteran reservist, had trained — but also came up empty.

“We added extra patrols. We did that for about two weeks,” Clements said. “The guy never showed up.”
