The teenage son of former NFL player Antonio Armstrong has been charged with murdering his parents at their home in Houston, Texas.

Mr Armstrong and his wife Dawn were both shot in the early hours of Friday morning. Ms Armstrong died at the scene, while her husband was later pronounced dead at the city’s Memorial Hermann Hospital, having suffered a gunshot wound to his head.

All three of the couple’s children were in the house at the time of the shooting, police said, including a 20-year-old son and a teenage daughter, neither of whom were hurt. The suspect, who is 16, called 911 at around 1.30am, shortly after the shooting occurred. He was charged as a juvenile and his name has not been released.

Sad! May their souls rest in peace!
