The owner of Just-In-Time Recreation bescribes how her 'safe' bowling alley became the scene of her 'worst' nightmare during shooting that killed 18.
Juray were overseeing a packed family night at their bowling alley in Lewiston, Maine, when the unthinkable happened on Wednesday night. A man walked through their decorated glass doors with a high-powered rifle and started shooting.
Asked what she and her husband planned to do in the days ahead, she said it was too soon to even contemplate re-opening. “It’s a staple for the community, a place where kids and families go to have a good time. It was great. I can’t believe this happened there. It’s so crazy. We have our fair share of crime here, but you don’t see heinous crime like this,” he says.
“It was a family — a big family. Everybody knew everybody,” Wagner said of the bowling alley. “We’re the second biggest city in Maine, but we’re still a small town.”A few seconds later, one of his bowling league partners said, “Hey, that’s a gun! That’s gunshots!”that a man who tried to stop the shooter didn’t survive. He said the incident seemed incomprehensible.
