Authorities in Montana are searching for Michael Paul Brown, a former US soldier, suspected of killing four people at The Owl Bar in Anaconda. Brown remains at large and may be armed after escaping in a stolen vehicle containing camping gear and clothes.

The victims, who ranged from 59 to 74 years old, included a female bartender and three male patrons. Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen described Brown as an "unstable individual" and warned the public of potential danger as the manhunt progresses.

Despite the extensive search, Brown's whereabouts remain unknown, and a USD 7,500 reward is offered for information leading to his capture. Residents are advised to report any sightings immediately to authorities.
