The manhunt continued Monday for a mass shooting suspect in Texas who allegedly killed five of his neighbors after they asked him to stop firing his gun outside.
Francisco Oropeza, 38, remains on the run after the mass shooting, which occurred this past Friday around 11:30 p.m. in the town of Cleveland, Texas. Oropeza was shooting off rounds from his AR-15 when his neighbor, Wilson Garcia, asked him "respectfully" to move farther away from their home because their baby was trying to sleep, Garcia told The Associated Press. Oropeza had reportedly been drinking, and got angry when Garcia then called the police, sources told The New York Times.
