The New York Times · Maine Gunman Disclosed He Had Mental Health Issues, Gun Shop Owner SaysBy Chelsia Rose Marcius

I worked at a local K-Mart store on the weekend during college At one point I was working the Sporting Goods counter during Hunting Season My training on selling licenses was that if someone answered a question on the form in a disqualifying way I was to call management

NNY Liberty

Management would inform them that they could not sell them a license, I also had to call them to sell a license since I wasn't a State Licensed Agent, and that management then had to report the denial to the police

Paywalled, so I can't read the article I'm guessing his denial was not reported or not followed up by police

The shooters recent history in the last few months is littered with so many time there should have been intervention and treatment but everything failed in that
