Heard a loud pop. I thought it was a balloon. I had my back turned to the door. As soon as i turned and saw it was not a balloon, he was holding a weapon, i went down the lane and slid to where the pins are. We looked out the window, saw a sea of lights, and it was sirens. A lot of Police Obviously but you could hear the balances like they were running back and forth, back and forth. I think theres going to be very few people in this community that have not been touched by this. Reporter many asking were Warning Signs missed. The shooter was reported as behaving erratically at a Training Facility this past july and sources say he made statements about Hearing Voices and wanting to shoot up a National Guard base. He was the then transport today an army hospital. Im sure there will be a lot of review, analysis, was he deemed a danger to himself or someone else . Reporter were now at the scene of the first of the shootings. The Bowling Alley is right behind me thats the justintime recreation center. You cant see it but its right behind me. Other vehicles have been coming in and out processing evidence all afternoon. We can tell you according to a former colleague in the reserves with card said card was a skilled marksman and outdoorsman one of the best shooters in their Army Reserve Unit and also sources say card owns hundreds of acres of land in maine and several legally purchased firearms. Jake. Brian todd, thank you so much. 18 lives were tragically lost during this horror that broke out in the Bowling Alley and restaurant in lewiston, maine last night. This evening were learning more details about who the victims were. Jason carol looks at their lives. This city did not deserve this terrible assault on its citizens, on its peace of mind. On its sense of security. No city does. No state, no people. Reporter the magnitude of what happened last night coming into focus as authorities removed the bodies of some of those who pe risched in the shooting at the schemengees bar and grill restaurant. Police say of those who were killed, seven died at justintime recreation a Bowling Alley, while eight died at the bar nearby. Including leroy walkers son who he said was managing the bar when the suspect began shooting. You get anything that happens like this, you go empty. And its just nothing nothing you can do. Your gut goes like a monster inside of you. And it e feels like its going to fall off. Reporter minutes away from the bar at the Bowling Alley, more victims and more tragedy. Tricia asselin worked parttime there. Her brother said she was shot and killed while trying to kill 911. And jake wanted to bring in here, we also got some latest information about another victim here. His name, brian mcfarlane. Apparently his sister said that he was deaf. Sorry about the technical problems, folk. Were back live in tel aviv, and more now on our Breaking News in the united states. The fbi is pouring resources into the manhunt in maine for the suspected shooter who killed 18 people and injured 13 in lewiston, maine. Experts who have been sent in help are evidence response team, swath s. W. A. T. And a cellular tracking. With me now is john miller. The list of fbi resources, does anything stand out to you from this list . What might that tell you about the state of the search for the suspected shooter . The fbi has brought the full package as far as things they can do to support local Law Enforcement. A couple of things jump out. One is the people from bau, the Behavioral Analysis unit, those are the fbi profilers. They understand mass murderers, serial killers, theyll try to give insights into that whey can glean from his State Of Mind things hes said, written. They did three search warrants today, one on his house, another on his property, land, and car. Theyre looking for the notes, the computers, things that may tell them where this was coming from. Where hes going. Also the crisis negotiator. The crisis negotiators are their hostage negotiators. They bring those people in along the idea that if it becomes a Barricade Situation you have people who have been studying him. People who are trained to talk to somebody under pressure, try to slow things down and bring it to a safe conclusion. So thats some of what you see in that package. John, Law Enforcement sources told you that a Working Theory about the shooters motive might have to do with his recent break up with his girlfriend. So he had a breakup with his girlfriend before that he lost a job, before that, he had a Mental Health crisis over the summer. That was what was reported earlier about Hearing Voices and having feelings that he was going to hurt other soldiers. So when you take those three things together, the Mental Health crisis, losing a job, losing a girlfriend or a relationship, these are what they would refer to as stressors. When you take two or three on top of each other in rapid succession where you have somebody experiencing a Mental Health crisis that can be the kind of thing that can lead to this. The target selection seems to be places he used to go with the girlfriend, who he broke up with. People that she would be with, if she were there that night, and schemengees, the bar that he opened fire in, was having a Corn Hole Tournament where she was they believe he thought she was supposed to be in that tournament. So it is possible that he was returning to the places they used to go together and that he may have been looking for her as well. I know there are probably a lot of people in the u. S. And around the world thinking he heard voices how was he able to have guns . Well explore that later in the show. John, its been more than 20 hours since the first shots were reported at the Bowling Alley and the manhunt for card gan shortly thereafter. How far away could he be right now . Its been a long time. He could be pretty far away or right next door. Thats between with the 20 hours that have passed there or so, he could have traveled a Long Distance if he was moving the whole time. On the other hand, you know, he was he dumped the car by a boat launch and by the entrance to the woods. Did he go Into The Woods . . Did he have a boat waiting or steal one . Did he have a switch car . Right now they dont know that information. So they are looking near but they are also looking far. And theyre trying to press on what his world might be in terms of family or friends or others that he might reach out to that might help give them an answer. But he also may feel so isolated at this point that hes not communicating with anyone. And jake, we circle back to this question, which is there he was on camera, in places where he knew he was going to be, recognized where he knew his photograph was going to be captured on security video, didnt wear a mask, put his hood up, didnt have a hat on or glasses. Yet he made a concerted effort, a successful effort to escape. So the question on the minds of the investigators and those hunting for him now is it just because he thought he could get away and stay away . Or is it because there is another leg to this plot . Another target perhaps . Some other chapter to this theyre not aware of . And of course that puts them under a good deal of pressure. How does the Manhunt Change as time goes by, especially if this turns into days or weeks . Well, weve seen this before, you know, the hunt for eric robert rudolph, the olympic park bomber went on for years, they didnt find him until he came out to garbage pick some food multiple years later and a Patrol Officer spotted him and didnt know who he was when he stopped him immediately. But generally this is a person who, yes, has some training, some wherewithal, an outdoorsman, a marksman who is armed, but im not sure that he has the resources to defeat a manhunt thats literally using every tool, every mindset and every technology known to modern manhunting for too long. The shooting happened at two different locations. The Bowling Alley and the bar and grill. Its about a ten to 15 minute drive between the two spots. Is that common in the a Mass Shooting . More than one location and ten to 15 minutes apart . Weve seen multiple location Mass Shootings, but these were separated by three or four miles. Hes driving at night. He had his vehicle. So it wouldnt take him long to go between them. And each one of them had meaning to him and the same meaning. And i think, when he went to the first one, you could you could surmise that when he opened fire there, and either didnt find his exgirlfriend if thats what he was looking for or decided that, you know, his mission was accomplished, he went to the next one, the other place that they used to go together, and did the same thing. I have to say, i always find it, i dont know, questionable, im always kind of curious about the decisions by these towns when theres a manhunt and they go into complete lockdowns and schools and businesses close. I understand the fear, but its not sustainable for a long time. And i theres part of me that wonders if if it makes anxiety worse. How do police reconcile Public Safety with the need for people to live their lives . Well, its a double edged sword. And its hard to explain to someone who is standing on the other side of the world where missiles are falling and shots are being fired and lives are being taken each day. But if you think of the Boston Marathon bombing, right. Think back to the that, jake. They put boston on lockdown because the suspect was at large, they had shot a police officer, they were on the loose. And boston is the city of jay walkers, they dont follow any rules and yet the city complied. The streets were barren, and then what happened, the suspects were throwing bombs at the police, one escaped and the other was apprehended. They found him the next day when a neighbor noticed a bloodstain on a piece of canvas they had on their boat and they surrounded the boat and, of course, the suspect who has been convicted in the case, was hiding inside. You never know which way things are going to go because theyre driven by the perpetrators, not the investigators. John miller, thanks so much. Good to see you again. Coming up live from tel aviv, the targeted raid israels military made in gaza. What that might mean for a future Ground Incursion. Well be right back. Cmon, were right there. Cmon baby. Its the only we need. Go, go, go, go ah Touchdown Baby touchdown are your neighbors watching the same game . Yeah, my 5g Home Internet delays the game a bit. But you get used to it. Try these. Theyre noise cancelling earmuffs. I stole them from an airport. Its always something with you, man. Great solid greek salad . Exactly dont delay the game with verizon or tmobile 5g Home Internet. Catch it on the xfinity 10g network. Welcome back to the lead. Were live from tel aviv. There are new signs israel might be closer to launching a Ground Incursion into gaza. The Israeli Military said overnight they carried out what they called a targeted raid into northern gaza. In this video relieved by the idf you can see tanks and a bulldozer moving on the road near a fence and firing artillery. They said it was to create better terms for Ground Operations if and when that comes in, unquote. Lets bring in cnns Clarissa Ward who is live for us in cairo, egypt. This raid comes as the u. N. Is warning that the humanitarian crisis in gaza is reaching a real critical point. Reporter thats right, jake. We dont really know very much about what this Raid Entailed beyond what the idf told , whic you already outlined it was a raid in northern gaza. There was some artillery fire, and the goal of it was to try to prepare the ground for a possible Ground Offensive coming forward. We have heard this continuous drum beat coming from Israeli Forces and israels government trying to hammer home the idea that this Ground Offensive is going to happen, even as weve seen a continued delay in that Ground Offensive actually taking place. That presumably due to a number of factors, but primarily pressure from the u. S. And other parties who are deeply involved in the efforts to get hostages outside of gaza. And all of this happening, as you mentioned, jake, alongside the deterioration that we are seeing inside gaza of humanitarian conditions. Particularly with regards to fuel. You may remember, the u. N. Agency, the primary u. N. Agency that is operational inside gaza had said a couple of days ago they were going to have to suspend operations on wednesday night if they didnt get more fuel. Today they have kind of calf kuwait c caveated that if they will and said they have had to start rationing fuel, choosing where they deploy their fuel, theyve been able to give to bakeries, hospitals, and by tomorrow if they dont get anymore fuel they may be forced to completely suspend their operations, jake. Israel says they wont allow fuel into gaza because hamas Controls Gaza and hamas will use that fuel for their own purposes including Firing Rockets into israel. What about food and water . What is the issue there . Is israel allowing food and water in for the innocent palestinians . Reporter they are allowing food and water in, but what we have seen going in is really just a trickle. So another 20odd trucks went in today. Keep in mind more than 60 of the population at The Best Of Times is dependent on food aid. You have more than a Million People currently displaced. You have some of the most heavy and punishing in fact, the most heavy and punishing bombardment that gaza has ever seen and a lot of that aid, jake, is not getting to the north. The north is where the Israeli Forces told people you need to evacuate from those areas but those hospitals are still burdened with many, many patients. Also with displaced people and theyre not getting the aid thats coming in. And the aid thats coming in, according to the u. N. Is literally a drop in the ocean in terms of what is needed. So there are still a lot of intensive efforts ongoing to try to open up a more sustained continuous corridor and to give you a sense of the numbers, the u. N. Said we need 100 trucks a day and we need those trucks to contain fuel. So eight trucks yesterday, 20 today, its something, its important, its desperately needed but it needs to be a lot more, jake. Clarissa ward in cairo, thank you so much. Its the personal stories that continue to bring the tragedies of this war home. And coming up next ill talk to a man whose sister and her children and one of his dear friends are missing. They are believed to have been kidnapped by hamas. Stay with us. P. Were back live from tel a aviv. Israels military says 224 people they believe are being held hostage by hamas, men, women, and children, from countries including the united states, thailand, argentina, germany, most hostages are from israel. Were going to continue to tell their stories. On october 7th, an entire family was kidnapped, taken hostage by the terrorist of hamas. The parents and two daughters, 18 and 11.

Want my family, all all people with their families. Its so sad. It is sad. Its horrible. 20 days i not smile. 20 days not stop to crying. Its the world problem.

Thank you. Its not fair. Thank you. Its not fair. Thank you. Well be right back. Live from tel aviv, a strong warning from the rulers of iran. Its Foreign Minister at the u. N. Today said if israel does not end its retaliation in gaza against hamas for the october 7th Terrorist Attacks the, quote, u. S. Will not be spared from this fire. Concerns of a larger regional conflict of course are growing. And we already see it with clashes between israel and hezbollah. Cnns jim sciutto is on the northern Israeli Border with lebanon. Jim, what can you tell us about these latest clashes . Reporter well, jake, two things become very clear the moment you come up here. One is that Israeli Forces are taking the threat from the north, a threat from hezbollah, extremely seriously. They have many Tens Of Thousands of forces arrayed up here in a defensive posture for now to prevent in effect what happened On October 7th from gaza happening up here in the north. And the second thing that becomes clear, and i spent and our team spent most of the day with Israeli Forces on the northern border, is that the threat they see from hezbollah every day is very real. A Triple Threat in effect from sniper fire, rocket fire as well as the threat of Ground Incursions across the border. As we were there up close, they told us to move very quickly through what they knew to be lines of fire. They have drones in the air, armed drones, the israelis do, looking for hezbollah forces just on the other side to take them out in effect before they attempt to cross the border, which they say theyve done many times. Of course there was one case where they did cross the border a number of days ago. And then of course theres a very clear connection between whats happening up here or what theyre nervous about happening up here and events down south. An awareness that a large Ground Incursion into gaza could spark a reaction from hezbollah as a message in effect from those leaders in iran you were just referencing, jake. And so much of the north has Northern Israel has been evacuated. You spoke with the mayor of one of the israeli cities thats been evacuated. What did he have to tell you . Reporter thats right. We went to metula, which is in the north. Its surrounded on three sides, in effect sort of a finger, a thumb of israel projecting up into lebanese territory and surrounded, 270 degrees, by hezbollahcontrolled territory. Its under mandatory evacuation. Its a ghost town there. The only people remaining are idf soldiers protecting the city and the mayor and his team. And i asked him, what is it going to take to get people to come back here, to feel safe . Heres what he had to say. Translator we dont want a war. We just want to end the current status quo and move hezbollah out of southern lebanon. We can either make a peace deal through the americans and iranians to make hezbollah leave the southern front, leave the five to tenkilometer radius of the border, or if not we will have war. Reporter listen to his message there. And he was not alone. I heard that from Israeli Soldiers as well, the idea that the status quo doesnt work, that having hezbollah under threat of crossing the border is enough to say at least from their Point Of View they want to see action, they want to create a buffer zone inside lebanon, which of course would require Israeli Military action inside lebanon, which theyve done many times before through the years, but at a very, very high cost to Israeli Forces as well as to civilians on the lebanese side. Not to mention the potential reaction of iran getting involved at that point and broadening this to a more regional war. But when you speak to the folks there like that mayor, they dont want to go back to what it was like preoctober 7th. They want a feeling of greater safety, jake. All right. Jim sciutto, thank you so much. Our other major story right now of course is the manhunt for the man believed to be behind the Mass Shootings in maine. What cnn is learning about his Military Background and a potential motive. More from lewiston, maine where this tragedy unfolded, next. The power goes out and we still have wifi to do our homework.

Announcer this is cnn Breaking News. Welcome to the lead. Im jake tapper. Im standing on a rooftop looking out over tel aviv, israel. It is midnight here in israel. And down there in gaza it has been 19 days since the horrific Terrorist Attacks by hamas caught this country and frankly much of the world by surprise. Were going to bring you the very latest on this war. But first we have to turn to our Breaking News back in the u. S. Just moments ago a cnn crew on the ground in maine where that manhunt is under way for the mass shooter. That cnn crew heard loud bangs or explosions perhaps near the last known address of the maine Mass Shooting suspect. Our team heard Someone Shout fbi through a bullhorn and unmarked cars pulled up before the media was pushed back away from the scene. A manhunt has been ongoing all day for the individual, for the suspect accused of taking the lives of at least 18 people and wounding at least 13 others in the Mass Shooting at two different locations in lewiston, maine, a bar and grill and a nearby Bowling Alley where one man says he only survived by
