A man dressed in full body armor and wielding an automatic weapon allegedly went on an early-morning shooting 'rampage' in Polk County, Florida, on Sunday, killing four people, including a mother and her baby.

, and wounding an 11-year-old girl before giving up and telling police he was high on drugs, authorities said.

He said that as deputies approached the home where the shooting occurred, they saw a truck on fire and a path leading from the road to the house illuminated by LED road flares. Grady said a sheriff's lieutenant initially tried to enter the front door, but it was barricaded. When the lieutenant went to the back of the house, a gunfight erupted.

"When someone chooses to give up, we take them into custody peacefully," Grady said."If he had given us the opportunity, we would have shot him up a lot. But he didn't because he was a coward." He said deputies removed the girl from the home and she was airlifted to Tampa General Hospital, where she was undergoing surgery Sunday morning and is expected to survive.

Grady said a preliminary investigation, which he cautioned is subject to change, indicates the suspect, has no connection to the people he allegedly killed and hurt.
