I don’t have live results accessible right now, but here’s what’s known recently: Bates College in Lewiston, Maine has periodically faced lockdowns or shelter-in-place orders during active threats or gunman investigations in the surrounding area. In several high-profile incidents from 2023 and 2024–2026, the college and local authorities issued shelter-in-place alerts while law enforcement conducted searches, with some lockdowns later lifted after no explicit threats were found on campus. Please note that the situation can change rapidly and local news outlets provide the most up-to-date details.
