These disturbing pictures show the moment a shop worker killed a robber after he threatened his sister.
Usman Seth, 20, was working in his family convenience store when the gunman burst in late at night.
Armed with a shotgun, the attacker threatened Mr Seth's sister.
Using a 9mm Smith & Wesson handgun, Mr Seth opened fire on the gunman, hitting him in his leg.
However, the masked raider returned fire and Mr Seth again shot him, this time fatally wounding him.
Speaking to the Houston Chronicle, he said: "My family - their lives - were in my hands. I had to protect them.'
Following the shooting at 10pm on Friday, the emergency services arrived at the scene.
Mr Seth said after the gunman's mask was removed, he recognised his face.
The young Hispanic man had been in the shop about half an hour before the shooting.
Police have not released the name of the gunman.
Mr Seth and his family opened the store three years ago after moving from Houston.
He says it has constantly been targeted by criminals.
