Teen shot while waiting for bus in southwest Houston
A 16-year-old boy was shot while waiting for a bus Thursday night in southwest Houston.
The teen was riding his bike along Bissonnet near Fondren when he stopped at the Metro bus stop around 9:30 p.m., according to Houston Police Lt. Ronnie Wilkins. Before the bus arrived at the stop, three men in a red sedan pulled up to the bench and started shooting.

The teen was struck in the wrist and leg, police said. He was rushed to a nearby hospital, and Wilkins said he is expected to survive the wounds.
The shooting might be gang related, Wilkins said. Because the shooting happened at the bus stop, the Metro Police Department is investigating.
Anyone with information is urged to call Houston Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS (8477).
