Father shoots, kills 17-year-old boy in daughter’s bedroom
A Texas father shot and killed a 17-year-old boy after finding him in his daughter’s bedroom Thursday morning.
Johran McCormick died after sustaining wounds at a residence inside a Spring-area home on Bridgestone Lakes subdivision off FM 2920.
Harris County Precinct 4 Deputy Constables were the first to respond after someone called 911 around 2:30 a.m. The Harris County Sheriff’s Office also responded to the shooting.
Investigators said the father accused in the shooting woke up to find McCormick in his 16-year-old daughter’s bedroom. According to detectives, his 16-year-old daughter let McCormick in the house and snuck him into her bedroom.
Her younger brother went to say good night and saw two feet sticking out under the bed, detectives said. He then went to get his father.
The father walked in and asked questions, but his daughter claimed she didn’t know McCormick. The father then called 911, but an argument ensued.
The father told deputies that McCormick reached for something and he opened fire. The teen died at the scene. Investigators said they will present their findings to the Harris County Grand Jury for its consideration.
