A mass shooting in Cleveland, Texas has left five people dead, including an eight-year-old boy, with authorities now desperately hunting a suspect who 'could be anywhere.'
The shooting, which took place on Saturday, allegedly occurred after a neighbour asked the suspect to stop firing his gun as their baby was trying to sleep.
San Jacinto County Sheriff Greg Capers told media a manhunt was underway to find the shooter, a 38-year-old man, but admitted the suspect"could be anywhere now." "We believe we have that weapon, but we don't know if he is or is not carrying a smaller weapon," Capers said. There were 10 people in the house when the attack occurred, with first responders telling press they found several children covered in blood underneath the bodies of relatives."Everyone that was shot was shot from the neck up, almost execution-style," Sheriff Capers said.
