HOUSTON — A 16-year old died and another teen was wounded during a shooting in northwest Houston Wednesday night.
It happened just after 6 p.m. at a convenience store at 2500 West Little York Road.
A group of young people got into a fight at the store which led to the two teens being shot, according to Houston police.
Officers found the 16-year-old with multiple gunshot wounds. He was later pronounced dead at a local hospital.
A 15-year-old was also wounded during the incident, police said. He was transported to a local hospital and is expected to survive.
Investigators said the victim was meeting with three others for a drug deal when the suspects attempted to rob him. That's when the fight broke out and the suspects began shooting at each other.
Two people believed to be involved ran from the scene, police said.
Police said there is surveillance video of the shooting, but the quality made it hard to tell what exactly happened.
Anyone with information in this case or on the two wanted suspects is urged to contact the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
