A Houston teen has been charged in the shooting death of his friend who was fatally struck as they pointed loaded weapons at each other as part of an internet challenge, according to reports.

Estes-Johnson was killed in his bedroom while playing the “No Lackin’ Challenge,” a game where two people get into fake arguments and point loaded guns at each other, but without actually firing them, authorities said.
Alajil allegedly pointed a semi-automatic pistol at Estes-Johnson, who in turn pointed an AR-15 at him. Alajil's pistol discharged and Estes-Johnson was struck by gunfire and died, police said.
