Houston police Monday were investigating a triple shooting late Sunday at a West Houston apartment complex where a Nintendo-playing session turned into a gun fight.

Police were called about 10:45 p.m. to an apartment complex in the 5600 block of Chimney Rock, just south of Westpark Drive, said Houston Police Lt. Gordon Macintosh.

Officers found one man who had been shot in his own apartment, he said. Two more shooting victims were in another apartment, where they had run to get help.

Two of the men had been shot in the back; the other had been shot in the abdomen. All three were transported to the hospital.

Witnesses told police two guns were involved. The suspects are all in their early twenties, Gordon said. Police are investigating.
