ED & LH A SHOCKING SCENE.

It must have been a startling and bloody scene that night at Baylor Medical Center. Two men had pulled up to the hospital and quickly summoned paramedics to their vehicle. Sixteen-year-old Eric Romero was inside the car with a gunshot wound to his head. His two friends then fled, leaving Romero in the care of Baylor doctors. Romero, remembered by family and friends as a good kid, died only a few hours later — just one day before turning 17.

Police are asking for any information relating to the case. None of the friends who dropped him off at Baylor called 911,
