The search for Robert Card, 40, of Bowdoin, involved both old-fashioned footwork and advanced technology, but for almost two days after the shooting there was still no sign of Card by air, water or land. Maine's wildlife game wardens were among the officers taking part in the water search. “That AI technology can be used to search the video faster," Carter said. SEARCHING BY AIRColder temperatures expected this weekend would have made it easier to use thermal search equipment, Sauschuck said during the afternoon press conference. “Helicopters and drones, given how wooded it is there, using infrared technology can help you look through the canopy,” Carter said.

But hours later, after repeated announcements and a search, authorities moved off — and it was still unclear whether Card had ever been at the location, state police said. Richard Goddard, who lives on the road where the search took place, knows the Card family.
