Texas Man Shoots Three Boys During Alleged Armed Robbery on Christmas

The boys, aged 12 to 14, were reportedly using weapons to rob the man outside his Houston apartment when he fired in self-defense.

Three boys, aged 12, 13, and 14, were shot by a 25-year-old man they allegedly attempted to rob at gunpoint in a Houston apartment complex late Christmas night.
One 12-year-old remains in critical condition after multiple gunshot wounds, while the other two boys sustained non-life-threatening injuries and are in stable condition.
Authorities are investigating whether the weapons used by the juveniles were BB guns or actual firearms; several weapons were recovered at the scene.
The man, who was with his girlfriend at the time of the incident, stayed at the scene, cooperated with police, and has not been charged as of now.
The case is under investigation and will be presented to a grand jury for further review, according to Harris County officials.
