The man accused of killing five of his neighbors with an AR-15 rifle in their Texas home was apprehended by law enforcement agents Tuesday, officials said.
Francisco Oropesa, 38, was taken into custody around 7 p.m. without incident, the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office said.
He was apprehended in Cut and Shoot, Texas, San Jacinto County District Attorney Todd Dillon said.
Dillon had initially said authorities are awaiting fingerprints to confirm the person arrested is Oropesa. Oropesa has been taken to the Montgomery County Jail and is charged with first-degree murder, he said.
… The FBI said it was planning a news conference Tuesday evening about the case.
… The arrest comes four days after Oropesa went to his neighbor's home in the Trails End area in Cleveland, about 45 miles north of Houston, and opened fire, the San Jacinto County Sheriff's Office said.
Oropesa started shooting after one complained that gunfire coming from his adjacent property were keeping an infant from sleeping, officials have said.
