Quick Glance: Maine shooting suspect found dead, ending 2-day manhunt
- The man believed to have killed 18 people and wounded 13 others in a Maine city on Wednesday has been found dead, state officials confirmed Friday night.
- Maine Governor Janet Mills said Robert Card's body was found in Lisbon, a town about 12 kilometers east of Lewiston where the shootings took place.

- A bulletin sent to police across the country shortly after the attack, which was viewed by the Associated Press, said Card had been committed to a mental health facility for two weeks this past summer after 'hearing voices and threats to shoot up' a military base.

Quick Glance: Analysis: Texas abortion pill ruling could jeopardise US drug oversight
- WASHINGTON, April 6 (Reuters) - The U.S. A federal judge in Texas could soon order the FDA to withdraw its approval of the abortion pill mifepristone, a move that, if allowed to stand, could severely undermine the agency, according to health policy and legal experts.
- Experts say that if the court decides to prohibit the sale of mifepristone because it is unsafe, it will effectively end the FDA's role as the ultimate arbiter of drug safety.
- The entire drug approval process would be called into question, according to Laurie Sobel, associate director for Women's Health Policy at the Kaiser Family Foundation.
