Law enforcement found a note Thursday night during searches of a home connected to the suspect in the shootings in Lewiston, Maine, that killed 18 people earlier this week.

During a news conference on Friday, Maine Department of Public Safety Commissioner Mike Sauschuck confirmed a note was discovered but said, “I’m not permitted to really talk about what that included.” He said investigators are looking into whether the note ties in with a potential “mindset” or “motive.”

The shelter-in-place order was lifted Friday afternoon, Sauschuck announced at a news briefing, but he urged residents to remain vigilant and report suspicious activity. Hunting was prohibited in Lewiston, Lisbon, Bowdoin and Monmouth starting Saturday, Sauschuck said.

  1. Why does this shooting seem weird? Everybody these days calls someone a conspiracy theorist aka right wing maga if they question events….
    Something just seems off like the Las Vegas shooting where the number of rounds were extremely exaggerated.
    I always question things when little evidence is shown and when stories get twisted.
    This guy is found “dead”? Suicide? And the “trusted” FBI supposedly found a note at his home? 😂😂
    Man, the world is starting to get more weird and those you thought were here for the good of Americans seem to be playing a game.
    Something is really sus in this shooting. I mean we have folks protesting for terrorist and we are just letting it happen? At some point they are the enemy….
    America is dying from the inside. 😢
