Montana Manhunt Continues for Suspect After Deadly Bar Shooting

A manhunt is underway in Anaconda, Montana, for Michael Paul Brown, 45, who is suspected of fatally shooting four people at The Owl Bar on Friday morning. Brown, a former U.S. soldier, fled the scene in a white Ford F-150 pickup truck and is considered armed and dangerous, prompting authorities to deploy extensive resources, including helicopters, drones, SWAT teams, and federal agencies such as the ATF and FBI. The motive for the shooting remains unclear, and Brown’s home has been cleared, but he remains at large. The incident has plunged the small community into fear and raised concerns about public safety and law enforcement procedures. Montana Governor Greg Gianforte has expressed prayers for the victims and is closely monitoring the situation. Authorities have asked the public to avoid the area and report any information about Brown’s whereabouts.
