Live: Maine officials hold press conference as manhunt continues

Watch as Maine officials hold a news conference at Lewiston City Hall to discuss the mass shooting and manhunt in Lewiston.

Officials spoke to the press earlier Friday, when they announced that divers had joined the search efforts to find Robert Card.

A manhunt is currently underway to catch 40-year-old Card, who is wanted on suspicion of murdering 18 victims and wounding 13 others in mass shootings across two locations Wednesday.

The gunman first targeted the Just-in-Time Recreation bowling alley and then the Schemengees Bar & Grille in Lewiston before going on the run.

Several of the victims have now been named by family members, with a teenage boy among the dead.
