another mass shooting in the u.s., at leoeast 22 people reported killed in maine and the suspected gunman is still at large. and also the u.n. warns it will be forced to suspend aid operations in the coming hours if fuel isn't delivered. >> we'll start in lewiston, maine where a police manhunt is under way for the person voflged in the massacre wednesday night. 22 are dead, up to 60 others wounded. >> shootings took place at a bowling alley and a restaurant. officials are telling residents to stay inside and lock their doors. >> hundreds of officers are looking for this man, 40-year-old robert card. schools in the area are closed thursday as police search for the gunman. >> card is considered armed and dangerous. if people see him, don't approach or make contact with him in any way. the shelter-in-place order that

currently stands remains. a vehicle which was a vehicle of interest in this incident was located in lisbon and we're now also asking residents in lisbon to shelter in place. >> the attack began shortly after 6:00 p.m. listen to how one witness described the moment the gunman opened fire. >> just had started bowling. i don't know. just came in and heard a loud pop. thought it was a balloon. had my back turned to the door. as soon as i saw it was not a balloon and he was holding a weapon, i just booked it down the lane and i slid basically into where the pins are and climbed up into the machine and was on top of the machines for about ten minutes until the cops got there. >> state and federal agencies are assisting with the investigation. >> and we're learning more about the man. the person of interest robert card. john miller reports. >> robert card, about 40 years

old, a former military person, still associated with the army reserves. attached to a base up in sacko, maine. we're told he recently lost his job at a recycling center. this is one of those things that could have been a stressor that had to the problems he may have already been experiencing. law enforcement sources also say he complained that he heard voices that there was a threat to shoot up the military base where he had been attached. and he spent two weeks being evaluated in maine and then medically cleared and released. more recently it appears that he lost his job.

so he has tactical training and has mental health issues and allegedly snapped tonight and put his experience and his training to work in a terrible way. >> let's bring in our reporter in lisbon not far from where they found the vehicle. and there is a lockdown in place. >> reporter: yeah, good morning. i wish i was joining you guys on better circumstances. but here we are in lisbon falls about 20 minutes from lewiston where the shootings took place. and police are still searching for the person of interest, robert card, who you just heard about there. and you heard about the police commissioner earlier talk about them finding his vehicle here in lisbon which is about ten minutes up the road from where

we are in lisbon falls. there was a very large police presence in lisbon. they had a helicopter circling a farm and it seemed like maybe that is where they were keying their interests into try to find card. they moved their search efforts down the road here like i said about ten minutes down the road and they have been keying in on search efforts in this area. behind me is the high school, this is where a lot of law enforcement officials are posting up this morning. we've seen them in the gymnasium, you can see through the windows it seems like they are having some find of debriefing, some type of team gathering, maybe strategizing a plan for when they do encounter card in this area if they do. but it seems like robert card is still very much at large here in maine this morning. >> was robert card known to authorities? >> reporter: what did you say,

bianca? >> i was asking if robert card was known to authorities. >> reporter: i don't have a ton of information about robert card. we have a whole team working on this as you can imagine. and i think that there has been some reports, some past incidents where he's had some run-ins with the law, but he has a military background, he has been known to be a person that has guns. and he has also been known to be a person that has some type of mental health history. and that is what we're seeing come out now and kind of unfold as we're learning more about the situation. so i guess to answer your question, i would say yes, he has been somebody that has been known to law enforcement officials here in the state. >> all right. thank you for bringing us up-to-date.

let's bring in steve moore, a law enforcement contributor and retired supervisory agent for the fbi to discuss this further. this is such a tragic recurrence that we keep hearing from the united states. in this case some hallmark, for example somebody with a military background, but this makes this active shooter if indeed robert card is the perpetrator a primarily dangerous one because he has the skills and resources that might make it harder for police to find him. >> it makes it expo tnentially harder. and also to apprehend him when they do find him. the indications are that he may have had the military training. from what i've seen just in the quick photographs that we've seen of him, the way he holds the rifle, the way he wakes, the way he is walking one direction and addressing a target or

looking for a target 30 degrees off the direction he is walking, these are all indicators of very high tactical prowess. that is terrifying for the officers going out looking for him at night. and the problem is you might find him and then what? you've got somebody who is probably more competent with a weapon in the woods than any of the policemen are. so you have to decide how you are going to look for him and have a plan for once you find him. >> what does it mean person of interest, that phrase, and why aren't they using something more severe sounding as it were? >> person of interest has become a term of art that has more legal standing than it has fact

all standing. it is a way of saying they are a suspect without saying the person is a suspect.it is a waya suspect without saying the person is a suspect. reason is in different courts and certainly in the federal system, calling somebody a suspect attaches to it many different legal protections. for instance, if i'm just talking to somebody as a person of interest, i can ask them questions, but if they are a suspect, i cannot ask them questions without offering them a lawyer and things like that. it also has to do with possible discovery later on. or indicate, you know, the defense attorneys if this person survives and goes to trial, would say, well, he was a suspect before you had all the evidence in, so that is -- you had pretty much decided that he was guilty before you ever set eyes on him. so these are things that have

legal standing but really no -- he is the suspect. >> you were outlining the discrepancy potentially between this person of interest currently, robert card, and the local police who may well have a lesser level of experience and tactical experience compared to him. is it likely or do we know if the fbi ob other authorities have been sent into support this given those facts? >> he probably has more experience than the average a little on the street. but yes the fbi has some very robust tanctical teams. i was on the los angeles team and we trained to search for heavily armed people in the woods and did so. that is part of what the federal system can bring. additionally, i would say the

counties in maine probably also have some very robust tactical teams. it is not that the police officers are not well trained or not skilled, this is a person trained to kill you in many different ways and to do so in a very tactically competent way setting up ambushes, setting up situations where there is really no possibility of law enforcement winning. and police officers are generally trained for urban environments. streets, houses, things like that. i believe this person is more likely than not in the woods right now, a place where his skills give him the advantage. >> the longer this goes on,

potentially the further he could have moved. primarily they will speak to the counterparts in canada as well? >> yeah, canada has some really excellent law enforcement agencies, whether it be the rcmp, their border people. i've dealt with them before and they are very, very sharp. and they will get a lot of help from them. i think right now you are absolutely right, the area that you are -- the area where you are searching for him increases every minute the person is out of custody. you have to assume that they are at least on foot. could have a vehicle. if they have a vehicle, within 24 hours your area of search is immense. it is hard to calculate. but i believe from what i've been hearing on their radio

feeds and things like that, they are setting unfairly effective road blocks, things where a person would not be able to cross from one side of the forest to another across a road, couldn't drive out of the area. this is not a guarantee obviously that they have him bottled up, but it makes it more likely that they have kept him contained. we just won't know until he's found. >> steve moore, thank you for your analysis. appreciate your time on that. a real worry, isn't it. >> terrifying. a short time ago a message was posted to facebook from the restaurant where one of the shootings took place and the message reads my heart is crushed, i'm at a loss for words. in a split sebtsd your life gets turned upside down for no good reason. how can we make sense of any of this. sending out prayers to everyone. stay with cnn for the very

latest on this mass shooting in maine throughout the hour. we'll bring you any new updates as we get them. also ahead, a new raid against hamas. we'll have details on a critical shortage of supplies as well including fuel in gaza. and later on, former president trump gets in trouble with the new york court after talking to reporters outside his fraud trial. we'll have a report on what that will cost him.

welcome back. we'll have the latest from gaza in a moment. first an update on wednesday night's deadly mass shootings in lewis ton, maine. local police have identified robert card as a person of interest after at least 22 were killed and dozens others injured. >> his vehicle was found in the near bye town of lisbon. >> and my first reaction was a lot of anger that it was happening in the community.bye . >> and my first reaction was a lot of anger that it was happening in the community.

mainers are much better than this. you've had these interviews with all other people in the country before in a mass shooting and you just can't believe that it will happen in your hometown and here we are. i got helicopters flying over my house with search lights. it is unreal. we have a view of main street, so i just saw police car after police car after police car flying by and then ambulances going to the hospital. >> card is described as an expert firearms instructor and u.s. army reservist. he is considered armed and dangerous and residents are being urged to shelter in place. and now we want to turn the focus to israel's war against hamas. >> israeli military says it has conducted a targeted raid on northern gaza with tanks. >> an army spokesman says it was large but limited in scope and meant to create better conditions for ground operations.

it released these images of the raid. the army said it killed a number who were planning to conduct attacks. >> and the israeli prime minister said preparations are under guy a ground incursion but wouldn't reveal any details. >> and u.n. agency warns that operations could soon be suspended due to a lack of fuel. >> salma abdelaziz has a closer look. a warning that her piece contains images you may find disturbing. >> reporter: aid slowly trickling in, but families desperate say they are getting bars of soap. the so-called aid provides nothing. we're dying a slow death, this man says. you don't hear the people's screams at night when they fight over a piece of bread. not even water to drink.

so far the total amount of aid delivered is less than 1% of what the enclave would receive on a daily basis prior to this conflict. and a crucial life line is missing. fuel. without it, the main u.n. agency on the ground says it will be forced to halt operations. the international community is begging for help. >> we are appealing, pleading, we are on our knees asking for the sustained scaled unprotected humanitarian operation. >> reporter: israel's reply? ask hamas for fuel. >> translator: fuel will not enter the gaza strip. hamas uses it for its destruction. fuel should be taken back from hamas and given to the hospitals. >> reporter: and they had previously denied the claims of fuel looting.

and as it intensifies with more than 200 hostages still being held by hamas, the fuel shortage is already costing lives doctors warn. at least six hospitals have shut down due to a lack of fuel and hundreds of patients from premature babies to the many wounded in icu are at risk. if the hospital is not provided with the necessary fuel for the generators, we are issuing a death sentence this doctor says. the execution is in the hands of the free world. everyone is guilty. water pumps will soon stop working too making it even more difficult to get clean drinking water. bakeries are closing, aid deliveries are more difficult. and more than 2 million people, half of them children, already under bombardment and under siege could face starvation. the clock is ticking. salma abdelaziz, cnn, london.

>> for more on the desperate humanitarian situation in gaza, we are joined by a doctor who works in pediatric intensive care with doctors without borders and is joining us from amman in jordan. thank you so much for joining us. you are really up against it, aren't you, in gaza. i mean, how much longer can your staff keep working? >> just to clarify, i'm not speaking on behalf of doctors without borders right now. i've been going to the gaza strip for over ten years now to teach. and i've been in communication with many of the doctors that i've trained with in the past. i've been in communication with colleagues who work in the nongovernmental space. and i want to echo the words that were very resounding words of oxfam. over a week ago now when they said that this is the worst humanitarian crisis that they have seen in their history, that is almost 80 years of working in

the humanitarian field, i clearly have not been in that field as long, but i can tell you this is certainly the worst humanitarian catastrophe i've witnessed in my lifetime. this is a population that has been living under siege for 16 years. a population that is already suffocated and struggling to access basic needs of food, clean water, medical supplies and health care. and the implications of the current intense bombardment, displacements, complete cutoff of everything that is indispensable for life including water, food, medicines and as you mentioned right now fuel, it is catastrophic for the population. two days ago ministry of health declared complete chance of the health care system in gaza. one third of the hospitals are already not functioning as a result of direct damage from airstrikes, as a result of the fact of tens of thousands that are now seeking shelter in these hospitals and the lack of fuel and other supplies. and the remainder are

functioning at less than bare minimum capacity because of the volume of injuries and lack of supplies and fuel. so, i mean, i heard in your report earlier one of the humanitarian workers that was interviewed said that we're on our knees begging. the global silence is deafening. and the health care workers are exhausted. they are working very long hours under unimaginable difficult cond conditions. we know colleagues ourselves that have been killed, their family members have been killed, and even a couple while on duty and they had to hear that news and then continue working. these health care workers, i want to really commend them, but i also want to emphasize that i'm a critical care doctor. i have been trained to take care of the sickest patients.

and i don't think the solution to this is more doctors or more aid. the solution to this is a ceasefire. i want to make that point very, very strongly. because in my lifetime i've never seen a catastrophe this grave and the world deny a ceasefire. i think that that should be extremely concerning for everybody listening to this program right now. >> and we hear you and that is what we've listened to other medical professionals and of course humanitarian workers say that there must be a ceasefire going forward in order to protect human life and of course our hearts go out to your colleagues who are having to suppress their own emotional reactions. i guess humanity in some respects just to get on with the job and try to help patients and save their lives. it is truly unthinkable. so the w.h.o. as you mentioned said that around a third of the

35 hospitals in gaza were already out of action. are you hearing from your colleagues and contacts on the ground that more hospitals are having to shut because of not having enough fuel and critical supplies? >> yeah, so i think that that will be what we hear constantly over the next few days. two days ago the hospital in the north of gaza was closed down. they can only operate a very small generator for the operating room but they can't accept anymore injuries. and the largest trauma hospital in the gaza strip is operating at enormous capacity. normally its occupancy is 700 beds or patients and they have close to 3,000 right now. they are using the e.r. as an intensive care unit. they are resuscitating patients on the ground because there is no space. they are operating in areas that are not operating rooms because there are too many patients coming in.

i hat to be graphic, but i think we need to be. dismembered. why i had yesterday i heard the story after a young person coming in having lost three of their limbs and asking to be covered because they don't want to be exposed. these stories are more horrifying and they should be horrifying to everybody. and i think it is really important to note because we keep talking about this as a war with a goal. 70% of the victims so far, 68% of the deaths actually according to the office of humanitarian affairs for the united nations today, 68% of the dead so far are women and children. you know, there are 2700 children that have been documented as having been killed by aerial bombardment. that excludes 900 children not accounted for in those numbers because their bodies are still trapped under the rubble so they can't be counted amongst the dead. these are someone's children.

and palestinian parents love their children like anybody else. like you love your children, like my family loves their children. this is a human catastrophe. and if you hear the desperation in my voice, it is because i feel like the world is not awake to it, we're not responding to it. and i think part of it is the ongoing dehumanization of the population by people who had a voice and my colleagues unfortunately in gaza, many of whom have not been able to have a voice in this, tell us over and over again we just want to be treated like humans. day before yesterday one of them said we feel like the entire world has come together to eliminate us. and i think that those words should be very alarming to everybody listening to your program right now. >> okay. tania, you speak for so many. thank you so much for joining us. this debate about the ceasefire and there is a lot of

pressure on the israeli allies to call a ceasefire and they are not calling a cease fire, but the debate amongst politicians, they accept the right that israel has a right to defend itself. if they now call for a ceasefire, it undermines israel the right to defend itself by taking out hamas. and there is a big debate here in london and washington about that. but when you speak to people like that and they just want the ceasefire for very practical reasons, is this a real problem. >> and this is why you are hearing the subtle shift in rhetoric about a humanitarian pause instead of a ceasefire in the british government. yesterday you and i were discussing that it was claimed that israel does have a right to defend itself and a pause or cease fire would only benefit hamas which is patently untrue when we hear testimony like we just did. >> so they try to find a way around the language. >> exactly.

and if you would like more information on how to help with humanitarian relief efforts, please go to cnn.com/impact and you will find a list of vetted organizations providing assistance. cnn.com/impact. coming up, small hospitals in southern maine are dealing with something they are not built for, a mass influx of gunshot victims and trauma patients.

welcome back. if you are just joining us, let me bring you up-to-date with the top stories. police in lewiston, maine are looking for robert card, person of interest in two mass shootings wednesday night. he is described assert filed firearms instructor and member of the u.s. army reserves. police say at least 22 people were killed in a bowling alley and restaurant and another 50 to 60 people are injured. authorities are urging residents to stay inside with doors locked and to report any suspicious activity. here are more details on the shooting. >> reporter: gunfire shatters what started out as an ordinary evening in lewiston, maine. >> first reaction was a lot of anger that it was happening in the community because mainers

are much better than this. >> reporter: lewiston police are looking for this man, robert card, who state officials say is a certified firearms instructor and member of the u.s. army reserves. >> card is considered armed and dangerous. he is a person of interest however. and that is what we'll label hip at moving forward until that changes. >> reporter: authorities in maine tell cnn that the 40-year-old card recently reported mental health issues and allegedly made threats to shoot up a national guard base in the state. >> you see it on the news and you say that will never happen here. and then it happens here. and it just blows your mind. >> reporter: according to a statement from maine senator angus king, president biden has offered federal assistance to the state. >> been stomping these grounds since i was 19 and i'm just overw overwhelmed. >> reporter: the boston fbi division says it is ready to assist with any available resources. >> we'll continue to gather information so that we can bring the suspect to justice.

and ultimately seek prosecution down the road. >> reporter: john lawrence, cnn, atlanta. dozens of people reported wounded. city officials say hospitals are bringing in all the help they can get. >> the two hospitals have called in every off duty staff member that they could to deal with this. we are a town of about 39,000. our hospitals are not geared to handle this kind of shooting event. and they are doing the best we can. >> and a medical analyst says no matter how many doctors and nurses are there, it is likely that the flood of patients will be more than the small hospitals can raynor explains why that i. >> maine already has three level one trauma centers. so if there are over 50 people with penetrating gunshot wounds, then that will quickly overwhelm

the ability of the hospitals in maine to take these patients and they will have to start to look at transporting parts who can be transported to nearby states. the images that we've seen captured by video suggest that the gunman had a long weapon and the caliber of that ammunition creates havoc inside the body. and it destroys tissue and creating an enormous amount of bleeding. in order to stabilize a patient who comes in with let's say a gunshot wound to the chest, a patient can require dozens of units of blood. and that is another thing that the hospitals in maine who receive these patients will have to assess, what is the status of their blood bank, how much blood do they have on hand to resuscitate these patients. so the hospitals are going to have to gear up operating room staff, bring in as many teams as they can, as many anesthesiologists as they can,

lab technicians, you know, to man the labs at night. it is a full-on effort to bring as much of the capabilities to bear to take care of these critically injured patients. it is a massive undertaking. we'll have more on the manhunt in maine and details of the targeted raid in gaza overnight when we return.

updating our breaking news out of southern maine. at least 22 people are dead in multiple mass shootings in the city of lewiston. >> a person of interest is 40-year-old robert card, certified firearms instructor and member of the u.s. army reserve. the shootings took place wednesday night at a bowling alley and restaurant. the gunman was armed with a high powered assault style rifle. >> lynda kinkade spoke with

jason levesque the mayor and he discussed how the community is dealing with the horrifying events. >> this is about as organized as one could ever hope i suppose. and right now our thoughts and feelings and prayers for those who have suffered through this. we'll all know someone who is a victim of tonight. >> and we're looking at pictures outside a medical center. can you explain the trauma response to this given just the vast number of people that were shot? >> no, i don't think i can other than we have trained professionals here. grief counselors, trauma specialists from the maine state police, local law enforcement as well as counselors and members of local clergy. and we also have each other. i think that is a big thing too. you know, maine really turns

inward, if you would, and really we support our own during difficult times. that is what we do and we'll keep doing it and we'll get through this. >> mayor, this mass shooting happened at a bowling sally and a restaurant around dinnertime. what do you know about how this unfolded, what have witnesses been telling you? >> talked to several firsthand witnesses so far. obviously everything is piece meal. everybody has a different view, different perspective. the investigation will be long and thorough. and i will say as more of a shock and disbelief when it first started happening. and then obviously followed by grief. >> and we'll have more on the breaking news throughout the hour, but now we want to turn our focus again to israel at war with hamas. >> we're learning israel

conducted what it is calling a targeted raid in northern gaza on thursday. >> the idf released this footage of the tanks on the move. the idf says the strike is part of preparations for the next stages of combat. >> for more we're joined by scott mclean. this was some sort of a scouting mission? >> yeah, second time that they have done this, they are sort of trying to clear the area to make conditions more favorable for them when and if they actually do go in with any kind of ground operation. obviously prime minister benjamin netanyahu said in plain language what had already been heavily suggested, that ground envision is coming. obviously they won't say when or where or how. but on sunday we actually saw one of these sort of smaller incursions on the ground where troops went in and then came back out. in this case though hamas actually said that they fired at israeli troops, they destroyed two bulldozers and idf later

confirmed that one was actually killed, first easy israeli sold killed in gaza since this war. hard to tell from the video what precisely is going on there, it is heavily edited, but they are saying that they went in and came out and it was somewhat of a -- >> we've been hearing about this tragic story of the al jazeera journalist, his loved ones killed while he was working. tell us more about what his colleagues have said and also how israel has responded to this. >> yeah, i'll just run you through it. this is the bureau chief for al jazeera. his family is from gaza city, they had moved towards central gaza and sheltering in a house. >> which is what israeli forces asked people to do.

>> which is why they got so much criticism. his wife, his son 15 and daughter 7 were all killed. and the media was there when he went to the hospital to see his dead wife, son and daughter while they were in the morgue. and it is pretty tough video to watch. it is actually even worse than this because a statement from the family said that there were 12 members of the family who were killed, nine were children. and we've just gotten new video in this morning, not sure if we have it quite yet, but it shows, you know, the burial taking place in what looks to be a shallow grave sort of bodies put next to cinder blocks with sheet metal put on top and buried. there is a lack of proper graves in gaza and so that is what they are having do with people. israelis have confirmed that this was in fact their strike. but they said, quote, strikes on military targets are subject to relevant provisions of

international law including the taking of feasible precautions to mitigate civilian casualties. regarding this specific case the idf targeted hamas terrorist infrastructure in the area. as you can imagine, journalism advocacy groups have condemned this and journalists themselves have also many of them died since this conflict began. 20 24. 20 palestinian, 3 israelis -- >> and so people going to an area they thought was safe and not being safe. >> precisely. this is why there is so much criticism even from the united nations. the secretary-general saying that not only is it not realistic to ask a million people to move from northern gaza to central and southern gaza, but you are asking them to move to a place with no water, food, shelter, anything like that, and then continuing to bomb those places even though these are the so-called safe zones. >> scott, thank you. up next the latest on the mass shooting in lewiston in

maine asas police cocontinue th seararch for thehe gun man..

back to the breaking news out of the state of maine. police have identified a person of interest in the two mass shootings wednesday night in the

stif city of lewiston. they are searching for 40-year-old robert card considered armed and dangerous. law enforcement says he is a certified firearms instructor and member of the u.s. army reserves. >> at least 22 people were reported killed at a restaurant and bowling a alley, another 50 to 60 injured. and residents have been asked to shelter in place amid a manhunt for the suspected shooter. many schools in the area have already canceled classes for today. former u.s. president donald trump has been fined $10,000 for violating a gag order during his fraud trial in new york. >> the judge paused the trial and called trump to the wednesday stand wednesday to testify about comments he made earlier in the day outside the courtroom. paula reid has details. >> reporter: trump made a brief appearance on the witness stand wednesday, not to testify about the substance of the $250 million fraud trial, but instead to answer questions from the judge about whether he had

violated a gag order that the judge has put in place. the judge overseeing the case previously barred trump from making comments about court staff members after trump had posted suggesting that the judge's clerk was partisan. and on wednesday trump complained about the judge saying that he was partisan but also suggested that there was a, quote, very partisan person sitting alongside him. inferring that he was likely talking about a clerk. but trump's lawyers deny that that is who he was referring to and when trump took the stand under questioning from the judge, he said, yeah, i was talking about the judge but then i was also talking about the star witness wednesday michael cohen. but the judge didn't buy it, saying he found trump nod not cre credible and slapped him with a $10,000 fine. going forward this will be a challenge for judges, how to enforce gag orders because of course a $5,000 or $10,000 fine even if it escalates over time, that is not a lot to former

president trump. so they will have to find ways to enforce the gag orders at the state and likely the federal level as well that could have an impact as trump tries to paint all of these proceedings against him as partisan pursuits. paula reid, cnn, washington. and ford and uaw have reached a tentative deal to end the longest u.s. auto workers strike in decades. >> members would get 11% pay increase right away and plus at least 25% more over the next 4 1/2 years. this is the first time the union staged simultaneous strike at all major manufacturers. the ai strike against gm and stellantis is still under way. >> we're super excited that this is over with and can't wait to get back to work. >> from what i'm hearing, sounds like great news for us. so hopefully we'll be back to work monday. >> u.s. house of representatives

is up and running after republicans finally settled on mike johnson as house speaker. manu raju reports that many republicans decided to back johnson simply because they had grown weary of the in-fighting that has paralyzed their caucus for three weeks. here is johnson addressing the full house for the first time after his election. >> job of the speaker of the house is to serve the whole body, and i will. we've learned a lot of lessons but through adversity, it makes you stronger. let the enemies of freedom around the world hear us loud and clear, the people's house is back in business. >> speaker johnson now faces a looming government shutdown in just a few weeks. johnson was first elected to congress in 2016 and is an outspoken supporter of former president trump. he also played a key role in efforts to overturn trump's election loss in 2020. i mean, we finally got there.

there is a speaker. an extraordinary story. >> as a result of fatigue it sounds like in large part. >> thanks for joining us here. i'm max foster. >> and i'm bianca nobilo. cnn's coverage of the breaking news out of maine continues next with "early start."
