Six people, including four children, were shot dead at a house in Texas before a three hour stand-off with police.
The victims were killed at a house in Spring, Houston, before armed officers chased and cornered a silver car containing the suspect.
Police attended the house in Spring to find seven people had been shotIn bizarre scenes, the silver car was eventually barged by a large police truck, which appeared to pin it to the ground, while marksmen gathered nearby.
A second armoured vehicle arrived shortly afterwards to corner the suspect, who stayed in the vehicle for around three hours.
Police stopped the car about three miles from the scene of the shootingDespite being surrounded by marksmen, and having his car virtually crushed by the armoured truck, the suspect remained "cool as a cucumber", police said.
After lengthy negotiations he emerged from the vehicle with his hands raised, sinking to his knees before being arrested and detained.
The car was eventually cornered by an armoured truckThe Harris County Sheriff's Office said officers attended a property in Spring at around 6pm and found two adults and three children dead.
Another child later died at a hospital. A 15-year-old girl was wounded but survived the attack, police say.
Talks continued into the night and the suspect eventually surrendered"It appears this stems from a domestic issue with a breakup in the family from what our witness has told us," Assistant Chief Deputy Constable Mark Herman said.
Authorities did not release the victims' identities and did not say how they might be related to each other or the suspect.
Sergeant Thomas Gilliland described the man as in his 30s with a beard "and cool as a cucumber."
He said that when he and other officers approached, the man was "just sitting in his car looking out at us".
Danna Stevens, 75, and her husband, Texas Stevens, live four doors down from the home where the shooting happened.
Danna Stevens said she did not know her neighbours well and that they had moved into the subdivision about a year ago.
