The victims had asked him to stop shooting his gun as they had a baby trying to sleep. <\/p>\n<p>According to officials, Oropeza had been firing a rifle in his yard before the incident unfolded. Police have charged him with five counts of murder and are actively searching for him. They believe that they have him pinned in a wooded area about a mile away from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/boston-marathon-bomber-files-lawsuit-over-alleged-unlawful-treatment-in-colorado-prison\/\" title=\"Boston Marathon bomber files lawsuit over alleged \u2018unlawful\u2019 treatment in Colorado prison\">crime scene<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Neighbors Shocked by the Tragedy<\/h3>\n<p>Neighbor Vianey Balderas told The Washington Post that she didn\u2019t think anything bad was happening when she heard gunshots because it was commonplace. \u201cWhen I heard those gunshots, I didn\u2019t think anything of it because in this neighborhood everyone has guns. Every weekend you hear gunshots,\u201d she said. \u201cPeople shoot in their backyards, after they drink alcohol, men take out guns at house parties and shoot the ground.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The Horrific Scene<\/h3>\n<p>Oropeza allegedly shot each of the five victims in the head.
