15-year-old girl found shot at apartment complex after trying to rob food truck in SW Houston: HPD

Two boys are among the four in custody after a 15-year-old girl they appeared to be with was found shot at an apartment complex following an attempted robbery Tuesday night in southwest Houston, police said.

It happened just after 11 p.m. in the 6300 block of Windswept Lane near Unity Drive.

According to what witnesses told police, the 15-year-old, a second teen girl, and the two teen boys were armed with airsoft guns when they tried to rob a food truck vendor set up on Windswept.

During the incident, the vendor’s brother pulled up and blocked in the teens as they were trying to escape with the truck, police said.

The teens ran away into a nearby apartment complex. At some point while they were at the complex, the girl was shot, police said.

It wasn’t immediately known who shot her or why.

She flagged down officers at the scene and was taken to the hospital for wounds to her thigh and bicep. She’s expected to be OK.

Police said witnesses who remained told them that the teens were the same four people in the food truck attempted robbery.

The two boys, one of who police say was carrying a pistol, were taken into custody, along with the two girls.

Think I can come up with a plausible reason why she was shot.

Harris County Sheriff’s Office

On Tuesday, February 11, 2025, at approximately 8:30 PM, Harris County Sheriff’s Office Homicide Detectives were dispatched to 25950 Northwest Freeway (Exxon Gas Station) in reference to a shooting scene with one man dead and the shooter still on scene.

Harris County Sheriff’s Office Patrol Units and EMS were dispatched to the location after a man called 911 and stated he had shot a man who was trying to rob him. When deputies arrived on scene, the shooter was still present and cooperated. EMS attended to the wounded man, but he could not be saved and died on scene. Witnesses were also detained until Homicide Detectives arrived.

Once Harris County Sheriff’s Office Homicide Detectives and Crime Investigators arrived, the scene was processed, witnesses were interviewed, and the security camera recordings were observed that recorded the entire incident. After watching the video and interviewing the shooter, detectives determined the shooter had arrived in his vehicle and was immediately approached in an aggressive manner by the complainant once he had exited his vehicle. Video showed the shooter restrain himself and back away from the complainant all throughout the gas station parking lot. After getting his property taken from him, such as his wallet, he removed his handgun from his waistband and pointed it at the complainant. This did not deter the complainant, and when he approached the shooter again, he fired his weapon, striking the complainant. He immediately called 911 and put his weapon in his vehicle.

An autopsy will be performed in the next 24 hours to confirm the cause and manner of death, along with possibly confirming the decedent’s identity. This case will be referred to a grand jury when the investigation is complete.

I think the cost of energy will come down when we make this transition to renewable energy.
