The shocking moment a gunman went on a rampage and injured his neighbor after shooting up his house has been captured on camera.

Larry Dennis Hoad, 65, was filmed walking around his neighbor's property in Lealman, Florida, shortly before 1pm on Tuesday.

Hoad fired a number of shots through the front door, before walking around to the side of the ouse and then opening fire through a window.

Dashcam footage taken after the shooting had started shows an officer engaging with Hoad, and eventually shooting him to stop the spree.

Sgt. Matthew McLane was the first cop to respond to the shooting, the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office said.

When McLane got to the scene, he spotted Hoad walking with a handgun and a hunting rifle.

The officer ordered the 65-year-old to drop the weapons, and when he didn't they became involved in a shootout.

Hoad hit the police car with at least two shots, according to the Tampa Bay Times, before McLane was able to shoot him in the stomach.

The newspaper reports Hoad had been served with a eviction warrant earlier in the day. The neighbor who was wounded in the shooting has not been identified. 

Police said they believe the 65-year-old fired at least seven shots in total.
