Authorities say the partner of a Texas man suspected of killing five of his neighbors has been arrested for hindering his capture
Maria Rodriguez places flowers Tuesday, May 2, 2023, outside the home where a mass shooting occurred Friday, in Cleveland, Texas. The search for the suspected gunman who allegedly shot five of his neighbors, including a child, after they asked him to stop firing off rounds in his yard stretched into a fourth day Tuesday.
At a news conference Wednesday, Kean said he couldn’t go into details about the other people who were arrested, including how many. FBI spokesman Connor Hagan said authorities would not disclose the identity of the person who called in the tip — one of more than 200 he says investigators received. When offering a reward for Oropeza’s capture, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott called the victims “illegal immigrants,” which drew widespread backlash. His office apologized on Monday.
