A 13-year-old boy's haircut ended in gunfire in Texas after his dad got into it with the barber over a botched job.

The barber repaired the 13-year-old's locks free of charge, but the dad and barber got in a fight in the parking lot ... ending when the dad pulled out a gun, shooting the barber 3 times. KHOU reports the barber was shot in the stomach, leg and arm but is expected to survive.

"The boy stopped in at Magic's Kutts and Fades outside Houston..."

I presume all subjects of this story were feral Amish.

The picture looks to be hispanic

> The Harris County Sheriff’s Office says the father left the scene in a 4-door sedan ... possibly a Honda Accord. <

This country is getting crazier and crazier. They tell us the kind of car the shooter left in. But no description at all of the shooter himself. Maybe every time a Texas citizen sees a 4-door sedan, he should call the sheriff’s office.

I saw the prices in the window. $40 for a haircut? That’s insane. I go to a lady who has a small shop down the street and she charges $5 for a haircut. She does a great job; no frills, just snip and clip.

This is why I never patronize those drive through haircut franchises.

The guy at the cash register in the photo with the story is Hispanic - or appears to be.

Since Houston is about 60% Hispanic ....

Reminds me of a Barney Miller episode...

The picture is the police officer.

The most shocking thing about this event is that the kid actually knows his father.

Some white, some black, some hispanic according to the business’s pictures on Google. Looks like a clean and well run place.

They must have tossed aside mountains of evidence trying to find anything on the Trump campaign.

Just a guess, but I think the barber and the father had a few words after the kid’s haircut was fixed.

Then the angry barber did the stupid thing and decided to continue the argument in the parking lot.

The smart thing would be to simply stay in his store and let it go.

But no, he had to have the last word and got shot for letting his emotions rule his life.

“The picture is the police officer.”

I need coffee I guess!

Hey, at least I read the article.

[EEGator]

That’s a cop.

> Hey, at least I read the article. <

I would advise against that. Too many confusing details and facts. I usually just skim the excerpt, then post comment after comment.

In the earlier posting the article said the shooter was black. Some commented that someone was in trouble at the editing desk for allowing that to slip through.
