“We are expanding the shelter in place advisory and school closings to include the town of Bowdoin,” Maine State Police announced on Facebook. “Please stay inside your homes while more than 100 investigators, both local and federal work to locate Robert Card who is a person of interest in the Lewiston shootings.”

Bowdoin is about 14 miles from Lewiston, the scene of Wednesday night's mass shooting. It has a population of around 3,100 people, according to the US Census.
