HOUSTON — A father was shot in the stomach by a teenager in the Gulfton area early Tuesday morning, according to the Houston Police Department.
This happened shortly after 2 a.m. on Gulfton Street near Westward Street.
Houston police said the victim’s son and another teenager were sitting on their porch when they were approached by two other teens.
Police said the teens had prior issues with each other at school, so the victim's son and his friend went inside.
That's when the victim came outside to see what was happening, and one of the teens opened fire. The two teens then took off.
The father is now at the hospital. We are working to find out his condition as of Tuesday morning.
