A 15-year-old boy from Houston is in police custody after allegedly shooting his mother and 17-year-old sister multiple times following an adverse reaction to THC edibles. The incident unfolded late Saturday night when the teenager called 911, expressing thoughts of harming himself or others. Upon arrival, first responders found the suspect in the parking lot, where he pointed a gun at them before fleeing the scene. Inside the apartment, officers discovered both the mother and sister with serious gunshot wounds and transported them to the hospital in critical condition.
According to law enforcement, the teen ingested a significant amount of marijuana before the shooting, resulting in a “bad reaction.” The investigation highlights the potential risks associated with edible cannabis products, particularly for young individuals. Fortunately, a third sister who was present in the home at the time was unharmed. The authorities have recovered the firearm used in the incident, raising concerns about the safety and accountability around cannabis consumption among teens.
