"In my opinion, they were actually trying to take care of the babies and keep the babies alive," Capers told ABC's Houston station KTRK. "All the victims were from Honduras," Capers told reporters, adding that 10 people had been in the house at the time. The Honduran foreign minister, Enrique Reina, called on Twitter for the gunman to face "the full weight of the law." Texas authorities said an arrest warrant had been issued for Francisco Oropeza, a 39-year-old Mexican, charging him with five counts of murder. "We've got his Mexican consulate card," Capers said, adding that a security system at the victims' house "captured him coming up to the front door with a weapon."
