Story is kinda suspicious. Early in the story it says that no arrest has been made. Then at the end it says that the police were contacted to see if an arrest has been made.
IIRC correctly, in Texas you have the right to defend yourself and your property. I'd like to see a layout of the property in the story. Two young men with a flashlight and a shovel (which could be conceived as a weapon) prowling around in the middle of the night could have been perceived by the neighbor as a threat. Like I said, we don't know the age of the neighbor, the layout of the property or the crime statistics in the neighborhood. There's plenty of scenarios that make this a tragic nightmare. But we don't have a lot of information.

I'm going to suspect that all the parties of the story are of the same ethnic persuasion.
I'm pretty confident at the very least that the person who did the shooting is not one of those "white folks" or the local Houston uniform hangers would be all over making a show of things.

And likely of the lower conomic strata so no money for the lair's to go after.
