Stay at home orders have been rescinded for a number of Maine communities after the deadliest US mass shooting this year.
A manhunt for the suspected gunman, who killed 18 people and injured 13 others, is in its third day.
Police on Friday released the names of all the 18 victims.
They include a grandfather, a talented young bowler, and four members of Maine's deaf community, ranging in age from 14 to 76.
The attack happened at a local bar and a bowling alley in the small town of Lewiston. The community as well as several other nearby towns have been on lockdown since the shootings.
Police have been conducting an "around-the-clock" effort to locate 40-year-old Robert Card, the suspect, and have urged caution for communities while he remains on the loose.
Michael Sauschuck, Maine's public safety commissioner, said on Friday evening that businesses can either remain closed or re-open as of this weekend.
