HOUSTON — A man shot his neighbor in west Houston early Tuesday morning after police say that neighbor pushed his way into the man's home and threatened to kill him.
This happened shortly after midnight on Eldridge Parkway north of Westheimer Road.
According to the Houston Police Department, the neighbor, a young man, was drunk and knocked on the other man's door and accused him of calling the police on him. HPD said the accusations were not true.
At some point, the young man pushed his way into the home and threatened to kill the other man.
That's when the shooter opened fire, hitting the man twice. The man who was shot was taken to an area hospital and is expected to be OK. He's also expected to be charged. The shooter's case will be referred to a grand jury to determine whether charges are warranted.
