A gunman shot dead five neighbors, including an 8-year-old child, after some of them had asked the man to stop shooting a semi-automatic rifle in his front yard in Cleveland, Texas, because it was keeping their baby awake, police said Saturday.

Police were still looking for the suspect, who used an AR-15-style rifle in the shooting late Friday, San Jacinto County Sheriff Greg Capers said. Authorities have charged Francisco Oropesa, 38, with five counts of murder and were searching for him in a nearby wooded area, Capers said.

"Our number one priority… has been to locate this suspect and put him behind bars where he belongs," Capers said.

Officials from Capers' office received a call from Cleveland about harassment at around 11:31 p.m. local time but when they reached the scene they found several victims who had been shot, he said. According to Capers, there were a total of 10 people in the house when the gunman got in and started shooting, five of whom survived.
