Authorities have identified the four fatal victims of the mass shooting at a Montana bar as they continue to search for the murder suspect.
In a press release shared on Sunday, Aug. 3, the Montana Department of Justice named the victims as Anaconda residents: Daniel Edwin Baillie, 59, Nancy Lauretta Kelley, 64, David Allen Leach, 70, and Tony Wayne Palm, 74.
Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen said at a press conference on Sunday that Kelley was a bartender at The Owl Bar, where the shooting took place around 10:30 a.m. on Friday, Aug. 1. The other three victims were patrons, he said.
The suspected gunman, 45-year-old Michael Paul Brown, allegedly fled the scene after opening fire inside the bar and remains at large, Knudsen said. The A.G. added that local law enforcement is working with state and federal agencies to search for Brown.
"We want to find this guy," Knudsen said. "This is a dangerous individual who has committed an absolutely heinous crime against this community and these victims."
In a Facebook post on Saturday, Aug. 2, the Montana Department of Justice shared a photo of the suspect allegedly fleeing the scene wearing only a pair of black shorts or underwear.

Lee Johnson with the Montana Department of Justice previously said that law enforcement had “located the white Ford F-150 that Brown fled the scene in,” though Brown was not located in or around the vehicle.
Brown is an Army veteran who served in Iraq between 2004 and 2005, according to an Army spokesperson, per The New York Times. He also served in the Montana National Guard for about two years until March 2008, according to the outlet.
The U.S. Marshals Service is offering a reward of $7,500 for any information that leads to the arrest or capture of Brown. Anyone with information is asked to call 1-877-926-8332 to report a tip.
