At least 16 people were killed and dozens injured after a gunman went on a shooting spree in the United States’ Northeastern state of Maine.
Officials say the death toll from the attack was likely to rise.
Hundreds of officers from the state and local police departments were searching for the suspect, who was still at large.
The Lewiston Police Department released a photo on its Facebook page of a person of interest, named as Robert Card.
“CARD should be considered armed and dangerous,” they wrote, urging members of the public not to approach him or make contact.
A state police bulletin said Card had been trained as a firearms instructor at a US army reserve training centre in Maine, but had a history of mental health problems including hearing voices.
The 40-year-old spent two weeks in a mental health facility during the summer, the bulletin added, reports say.
The gunman targeted a bar, a bowling alley and a Walmart distribution centre, according to the local Sun Journal newspaper.
According to the Gun Violence Archive, if the 22-person death toll is confirmed, the Lewiston attack will be the deadliest mass shooting in the United States since at least August 2019, when a gunman opened fire on shoppers at an El Paso Walmart with an AK-47 rifle, killing 23 people.
In 2022, there were 647 mass shootings – attacks in which at least four people were killed – including one at a primary school in Uvalde, Texas, where a teen gunman killed 19 young children and two adults.
According to data from the archive, 679 mass shootings are expected this year, based on trends as of July.
