A shooting captured on Facebook Live has left a man in critical condition.

Police in Houston, Texas, are investigating an apparently accidental shooting that occurred when three people sitting in a car were “playing with two pistols,” early Sunday, according to a press release. A woman in the vehicle accidentally discharged one weapon, striking the victim in the head, the release said.

ABC station KTRK said the victim can be heard saying, “You're making me nervous," in the Facebook Live video.

Video shows the woman hold a gun up to the camera, load the weapon and point it toward the victim. The gun discharges and the man goes still.
