These Are the Victims of the Lewiston, Maine, Mass Shootings
It was likely a typical Wednesday night at Just-in-Time Recreation and Schemengees Bar & Grille in Lewiston until Robert Card showed up.
Tricia Asselin was bowling on her night off with her sister. Joshua Seal and Bob Violette were with members of the deaf community. Joseph Walker was behind the bar until first shots rang out just before 7 p.m.
Maine Public Safety Commissioner Michael Sauschuck announced the names of all 18 victims during a press conference late Friday afternoon, although many family and friends have shared their losses on social media and with news outlets.
The reading of their names was followed by a brief moment of silence. The ages of the victims ranged from 14 to 76, according to Sauschuck.
People also left flowers in front of Central Maine Medical Center in honor of the victims.
At least 13 others were injured in the shootings.
