LEWISTON, Maine - A Lewiston, Maine bowling alley, where eight people were killed during the state's deadliest mass shooting last October, reopened Friday.When patrons returned Friday, six months after the gunman opened fire, they were impressed by the scenic images and messages of resilience at the end of each lane, bright paint on the walls and new floors. The Lewiston venue has undergone a complete makeover, giving it a vibrant, airy feel.
'You are suddenly thrown into a state of shock, and emotions dictate your thoughts,' Poma said in an email. 'Eventually you are forced to make a critical business decision based on how it will impact others emotionally and publicly. There just is no easy or right answer.' The City of Orlando last year agreed to buy the Pulse nightclub site to create a memorial. In Aurora, Colorado, a movie theater where 12 people were killed in 2012 later reopened under a new name.
