Police are hunting for a gunman who reportedly opened fire at three separate locations in Lewiston, Maine, and are warning local residents to remain in their homes.

‘There is an active shooter situation in the city of Lewiston,’ said Maine state police. 

‘Law enforcement is asking people to shelter in place. Please stay inside your home with the doors locked.’ 

Police audio said the two locations were Schemengee’s bar and grill, and Sparetime recreation center. The two sites are around four miles apart, in Maine’s second-largest city. 

Police were called to a third location, a Walmart distribution center, said Derrick St. Laurent, a Lewiston spokesman.

St. Laurent told the Sun Journal that the first call, to Sparetime, came at around 7:16pm.
