HOUSTON – Two teenagers were injured in a shooting Tuesday night outside of a store in the Houston Heights area, according to the Houston Police Department.

Officers were called to a strip center parking lot on Yale and Koehler Street at around 6 p.m.

Investigators said a group of teens were walking through the lot when an argument started.

During the confrontation, two of the teens pulled out weapons and started shooting, police said. One of the bullets reportedly struck a 15-year-old girl and a 15-year-old boy was grazed.

The teens were taken to nearby hospitals, where the girl was listed in critical condition. The boy was expected to survive.

The suspects involved have not been identified in this case.

Nearly 24 hours before the shooting, a man was also shot near the same location at a Walmart parking lot by a possible armed robber.
