Authorities are still searching for the suspect who killed five in Texas, including an 8-year-old boy.

Oropesa, who allegedly had been drinking, responded, "I'll do what I want to in my front yard," Capers said.

Footage from a Ring doorbell at the victims' house shows the shooter entering the home with a weapon, Capers said. Garcia told KTRK he moved in three years ago and "never had a problem" with his neighbor until Friday. Garcia's wife and young son were among the victims killed in the shooting. Garcia said he was in the house at the time of the shooting and escaped by climbing out of a window. Garcia said a woman in the house who told him to get out of the window was one of the people who died.

During Sunday's vigil, Garcia said his son was 9 years old; authorities have said the boy was 8. Some of Garcia's remarks also differed from his previous account when he spoke to KTRK. Another neighbor named Shawn told ABC News that the tight-knit neighborhood is typically "peaceful" and described the victims as "good people."Investigators described Oropesa as a 5-foot-8 Hispanic man with a goatee and short black hair. He was last seen wearing jeans, a black shirt and work boots.
