ABC13 spoke with the family, who didn’t want to go on camera, but said they are all doing OK.
Police have not released any identifying information regarding the father or his family.
The husband and wife were arriving at their home just after midnight Sunday evening when the two teenage suspects approached the vehicle. The Harris County Sheriff’s Office said that the suspects attempted to open the vehicle’s rear door, where the two children were seated.
“The adult male feared for the safety of his family and fired shots and struck both suspects,” Sheriff Ed Gonzalez wrote in a statement. “The wife was driving and drove away after the shooting to get away from the suspects.”
“A car pulled up after the shooting driven by an [unknown] male believed to be with the suspects. Both wounded suspects were taken to hospitals by private vehicles. Both suspects are teens, 16 yrs old.
Police have opened an investigation into the incident but say the father was within his rights to open fire.

Thanks for blanking out key parts of the video, which now shows nothing.
Nice to know that he was “within his rights” to keep people from attacking his kids.
How many times did she mispronounce the word vehicle.?
“Teens.” Got it.
stable unfortunately does not mean dead.
Good for the father taking action, but bad for the eardrums of those in the car.
Texas dad ‘shots’ two robbery subjects???
:-X
I see the person that wrote this article never made it past elementary school.
It’s sad when you’re supposed to be journalist but you can’t read or write simple sentences.
The headline looks like it’s written by a 6 year old.
Unfortunately, the family’s ears are likely still ringing after firing from inside the car with closed windows.
Certainly better than dead.
Still waiting for a description of the suspects.
Correct your headline. It should be “shoots” not “shots”. Another example of our fine non-education system.
What color teens? Let me guess.
