HOUSTON - A son fatally shot an alleged teen robber as he was showing off his new pistol to his dad at their home in east Houston, police say.

It happened in a neighborhood on Majestic at Market around 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, according to Houston Police Department Sgt. Thomas Simmons.

Simmons said the son and dad were in their backyard looking at the new pistol when two juvenile suspects, around 15 or 16 years old, approached them.

The kid gets two before they could even get a shot off. Outstanding. A little work on aquisition and he’s good-to-go.

That’s if you believe the shooter’s version of events.

” “They said one suspect pulled out a gun and was pointing at them, which we have recovered here at the scene.”

The son quickly opened fire, shooting both of the suspects. One suspect was taken to the hospital where he later died.”

The robber pulled out a gun first and pointed it at them. The shooting was clearly self defense.

Thugs or cholo’s looking for someone to rob got what was coming to them. I live in no-carry Cali. and things are very dark here. Some of the thugs and cholo’s are in for a big surprise though, even here.

Not necessarily blacks although that would be a good guess. Cholo's do the same crap and there's lots of them in Texas.

The media will never tell us unless they were white boys then they'd be leading every story with it. The media is quite pathetic.

From looking at what appeared to be police marked shell casings in the street, I’d have to say the shooter gave Chase.

How about you?
