Man shoots four dead in Miami
A man shot four people dead at a house in Miami, Florida shortly after midnight Sunday, then he drove home and killed himself, police said.
Miami police spokeswoman Kenia Alfonso told reporters that four people were shot and killed at about 12:15 a.m. local time , while they were at a house in the Little Havana District.
Witnesses saw a red Toyota pick-up truck leaving the area just before officers arrived, she said.
The alleged killer then drove to his home, setting his vehicle and the home on fire, and then turning his gun on himself.
Detectives said the incident appeared to be a murder-suicide, and they believe it is domestic-related because one of the victims was the gunman's estranged wife.
Abel Loredo, who owns the building where the suspected gunman lived, said the man had lived there for five years and had always been on time with the rent.
He said the man had moved to South Florida from Cuba about a decade ago and worked as an electrician.
Neighbors of the alleged gunman say the couple never had any problems with the police and like to barbecue in their yard.
The man's wife and her son had lived with him at some point, according to Loredo but it was unclear if they were still living there.
It's the second deadly murder-suicide shooting rampage in a week in the United States.
A man killed 10 people, including five of his own family members, before taking his own life in Southern Alabama last Tuesday.
美国再爆枪击案 迈阿密男子枪杀四人后自尽
美国佛罗里达州迈阿密警方15日说，当天凌晨该市发生一起恶性枪击案，一名男子在枪杀4人后饮弹自尽。
初步调查显示，这名男子持枪闯入该市古巴移民聚居的小哈瓦那区一所住宅后枪杀了4人，而后返回自己家中举枪自尽。据调查，枪击事件可能是因家庭纠纷引起，其中一名受害者是凶手的妻子，2人最近刚刚分居。详细案情仍在调查当中。
这是过去一周来美国发生的第二起恶性持枪杀人案件。本月10日，阿拉巴马州一名男子开枪打死10人后自杀，受害者包括他的母亲、奶奶、叔叔和2个堂兄弟。
美国是世界上国民拥有枪支最多的国家之一，全国3亿多人口，私人拥有枪支数量估计达2.5亿支，每年约有3万人死于各类枪击事件。
