A teenager has been shot while selling an iPhone to someone he apparently met on social media.

Harris County Sheriffs Deputies say this happened around 1 o'clock this morning in southwest Harris County. Deputies say a man and a pregnant woman took the teen to sell the phone.

During the sale, someone opened fire on the group and ran away. Deputies believe the phone was taken.

The 14-year old was shot in the hand. He was taken to the hospital. The man with him was grazed in the back. The pregnant woman was not injured.

Deputies aren't sure why the specific meet-up location was chosen. No one is in custody.
