Maine Public Safety Commissioner Mike Sauschuck on Friday afternoon said officials have lifted a shelter in place order for communities instituted after the mass shooting Wednesday night, but the search for the suspect continues.

“This is not to say the crisis is over, the emergency is over,” Sauschuck said. “We want residents to remain vigilant.”
