HOUSTON (AP) — Police say a Houston man has been charged with murder in the fatal shooting of an 11-year-old boy after a prank in which he rang the doorbell of a home and ran away. The 42-year-old man was taken into custody and booked into the Harris County Jail in Houston early Tuesday morning. Court records did not list an attorney for the suspect.
