Texas Father Shoots Teen Boy Hiding In Daughter's Room: Cops

A teenager in Harris County, Texas, was fatally shot by the father of a girl who sneaked the boy into her bedroom, authorities said.
Johran McCormick, 17, was shot early Thursday morning after the father of a 16-year-old girl found him in her bedroom, KHOU-TV reports.
McCormick was discovered first when the girl's younger brother went to say good night to her and saw two feet sticking out from under her bed.
The brother got his father who confronted McCormick after the daughter reportedly claimed she did not know him.
The man, whose name has not been released, called 911. He then got into an argument with the teen. The father told police that he opened fire when McCormick suddenly moved his hands, according to RawStory.com.
McCormick died at the scene. Deputies recovered a handgun from the home.
Investigators later discovered the victim was a friend of the daughter's whom she had let into the home, the Houston Chronicle reports.
The father reported possible panic attacks after the shooting and was taken to a local hospital.
It is unclear whether he will face charges, KCEN-TV reports, but the case will be referred to a grand jury, according to KTRK-TV.


ECCLESIASTICUS 7:23 Hast thou children? instruct them, and bow down their neck from their youth.
24 Hast thou daughters? have a care of their body, and shew not thyself cheerful toward them.
25 Marry thy daughter, and so shalt thou have performed a weighty matter: but give her to a man of understanding.

PROVERBS 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

ECCLESIASTICUS 26:10 If thy daughter be shameless, keep her in straitly, lest she abuse herself through overmuch liberty.
11 Watch over an impudent eye: and marvel not if she trespass against thee.

ECCLESIASTICUS 30:9 Cocker thy child, and he shall make thee afraid: play with him, and he will bring thee to heaviness.

10 Laugh not with him, lest thou have sorrow with him, and lest thou gnash thy teeth in the end.
11 Give him no liberty in his youth, and wink not at his follies.

12 Bow down his neck while he is young, and beat him on the sides while he is a child, lest he wax stubborn, and be disobedient unto thee, and so bring sorrow to thine heart.

13 Chastise thy son, and hold him to labour, lest his lewd behaviour be an offence unto thee.
