Five people have died in a shooting incident in Miami, Florida.

Police said a man shot and killed four people before taking his own life.

The man, wielding a semi-automatic handgun, killed three women and a man inside a house in the city's Little Havana district in the early hours of the morning.

He then drove away and turned the gun on himself at his home, which he had apparently set on fire, about three miles away.

In Alabama last week, a man shot and killed 10 people including his mother, grandmother, uncle and two cousins, before killing himself.
