Hundreds of law enforcement officers descended on southern Maine this week in search of the sole suspect in two separate shootings. Forty-year-old Robert Card of Bowdoin vanished after police say he killed 18 people at a bowling alley and bar. The deceased ranged in age from 14 to 76. The two-day search for the military-trained outdoorsman involved both old-fashioned footwork and advanced technology. On Friday evening, authorities said Card had been found dead. The Associated Press offers a look at the agencies involved and the resources they used in the search.
