A Craigslist Air Jordan meetup turn into gunfire and leaving a man in critical condition. The seller of the Air Jordan was taken to the hospital in critical condition, while the family believes both men know each other.
Deputy constables with Harris County Pct. 5 say a Craigslist deal gone bad led to a shooting late Monday.
It happened around 9 p.m. at a home in the 6100 block of E. Settlers Lake Circle, not far from N. Fry and W. Little York.
Constables said two young men were outside a home waiting for a potential buyer for a pair of Air Jordan shoes. The buyer arrived and allegedly tried to rob the 19-year-old seller at gunpoint. A scuffle ensued, and the gunman opened fire.
The 19-year-old victim was taken to the hospital by Life Flight in critical condition. His friend was not injured.
The suspect fled as constables arrived, but family members at the home said they believe the victim knows the shooter.
During the subsequent investigation, constables said they found a stolen Honda at the home. Officials said one arrest was made at the scene on a theft and possession of stolen property charge.
