Houston teen allegedly pulls gun, fatally shoots another in game of 'No Lackin'

A Houston teenager is accused of shooting dead a fellow teen as part of a weapons-drawing prank that has been spreading on social media, authorities said Thursday.
Mohamad Nour Alajil, 18, has been charged with manslaughter in connection to the Dec. 11 slaying of Christian Johnson, 19, officials told NBC affiliate KPRC in Houston.
Alajil is being held on $250,000 bail, according to jail records.
Police believe Johnson's death resulted from the "No Lackin'" challenge, which calls for one person to pull a weapon on another on video to record the reaction, KPRC reported.
