Authorities in the US state of Texas announced that they are pursuing a man suspected of killing 5 people, including an 8-year-old child. More than 200 local and federal police are involved in the search for the man, a Mexican named Francesco Oropeza, in the southern US state.

Police said they believed the massacre occurred after neighbours asked the suspect to stop shooting in the yard because an infant was trying to sleep. The request angered him and opened fire on them instead of stopping.
