A man shot and killed four people, including a baby in his mother's arms, near the town of Lakeland, Florida, CNN reports, citing the local sheriff.
The man then exchanged fire with the police before being arrested. Later, in the hospital, the crazy gunman again tried to take a police officer's gun.
After the shooting, police found the bodies of four victims: a man, a woman and her child and another woman. An 11-year-old girl was also repeatedly hit and taken to hospital.
The perpetrator of the shooting was allegedly under the influence of drugs at the time of the events.
According to the sheriff, the author describes himself as a "survivalist," a term that refers to the activities of certain individuals or groups of individuals who are preparing for a possible catastrophe, or even a potentially cataclysmic event.
