A pair of teenagers are expected to be OK after both were shot at a bus stop in southwest Houston late Sunday night.

A woman, her stepson and the stepson’s friend were at the bus stop near Brookglade Circle and South Dairy Ashford Road around 10:30 p.m. when an SUV pulled up beside them, according to Houston Police Department Major Assaults Detectives A. Ferrell. Someone inside that SUV pulled a gun and starting shooting, striking the teens, 14 and 17, in their legs, Ferrell said.

As the SUV sped away, the three ran to a nearby apartment complex, where a security guard helped call 911 for help. Paramedics rushed the teens to a nearby hospital, where they were listed as stable.

Detectives are working on getting a better description of the shooter’s vehicle, only describing it as a dark-colored SUV. Anyone with information on the shooting is urged to call Houston Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS (8477).
