TEXAS — A man was shot in the leg late Saturday night after an argument over a loud car in northwest Houston, according to police.
Houston police said officers responded shortly before midnight to Antoine Drive near West Little York Road after reports of a shooting.
Investigators said the victim and the suspect, who are believed to be acquaintances, got into a verbal argument before the suspect pulled out a gun and fired toward the victim.
“It seems like the suspect and the victim in this case are acquaintances,” HPD Lt. Ali said at the scene. “They got into a verbal altercation, and evidently the suspect produced a firearm and started to shoot in the direction of our victim.”
The victim gave officers a description of the suspect before being taken to a hospital for treatment. Police have not released the victim’s condition.
While officers were still investigating at the scene, police said the suspect returned to the area. The man was detained, and officers recovered a firearm.
The investigation remains ongoing.
