Maine gunman’s brain sent to lab to see if it was damaged during Army service

On Monday, officials reported that a brain tissue sample from the individual responsible for the death of 18 people and the injury of 13 others in Maine has been dispatched to a Massachusetts lab for examination.

The purpose is to investigate any signs of injury or trauma linked to his service in the Army Reserves.

The chief medical examiner of the state is seeking insights into whether a brain injury resulting from the military service of 40-year-old Robert Card could have played a role in the atypical behavior he displayed leading up to the shootings on October 25 at a bowling alley and a bar in Lewiston.

A representative from the medical examiner’s office framed this additional measure as a matter of thoroughness, citing the combination of military experience and actions as factors prompting the inquiry, NBC News reported.
