There are still so many unknowns since the Lewiston, Maine, shootings. One eyewitness told Scripps News' Vanessa Misciagna that they are trying to process what has happened in the community.
It’s here in their hometown that Wymanarel and her daughters witnessed a large police presence outside the local bowling alley Wednesday night. Wymanarel pulled out her phone to start recording. It’s the video we’ve seen all over the news by now, of people fleeing the bowling alley. When she recorded, she didn’t know what she was witnessing.
"My youngest last night, she's like, 'This is a scary world we live in mama.' And I'm like, 'I know I'm like, we're gonna go home. We'll be fine,'" she said. "I think today everybody is just in survival mode. People are scared, they're confused, they're worried. I'm sure everybody's going to try to come together as much as possible throughout all of this. But I think today is just like a processing day and just trying to figure out where my loved ones are," Wymanarel said.
