KEMAH, Texas–Authorities in Texas say a teenage boy fatally shot his father during an argument over a fast-food order, then killed himself.

Galveston County sheriff's officials say the violence occurred Sunday at the family home southeast of Houston.

Sixteen-year-old Robert Lee Mueller Jr. had returned home with the wrong food order for his father, 59-year-old Robert Lee Mueller.

Both died late yesterday after nearly two days in a Houston hospital.

The father was shot once in the head.

The boy shot himself after police arrived.
