2 teenage relatives shot and killed while getting Thanksgiving groceries from car in west Houston

Police are investigating what led up to a double shooting in west Houston in the early morning hours of Thanksgiving that left two teenage boys dead.

Houston police were called to an apartment complex in the 11755 block of Southlake Drive, not far from South Kirkwood Road, just after midnight.The 18-year-old was shot in the chest and pronounced dead at the scene, police said. The 17-year-old was shot in the neck and taken to an area hospital, where he later died.

ABC13 spoke to the mom of the 18-year-old who was killed. She shared a photo of her son, President Wynn, and said he had just graduated high school this past spring."He would have been 19. He would have been 19 on Dec. 8. My baby was about to turn 19," Tasha Cooke said. Unfortunately, investigators said they don't have a lot to go on at this point. They just know there was some kind of fight in the courtyard of the apartment complex, and then relatives heard gunshots.Investigators said there is one suspect they're looking for, though they don't have a good description yet. They found several shell casings at the scene.

Police said they're going through surveillance video and talking to witnesses to piece together exactly what happened.

that’s sad.
