The men had been at a bar before the incident, KXAS-TV (NBC5) reported, but began quarreling sometime around 2:45 a.m. after they returned to a residence in the 10100 block of Eagle High Trail.

When the father ordered his son to leave the house, the son physically assaulted him, police said.

The son then retrieved a gun, fired a warning shot and then shot his father in the leg, according to police.

Responding officers took the son into custody. The father was hospitalized with injuries that were not life-threatening.

A 17-year-old boy also in the home at the time was unharmed, NBC5 said.
