Harris County Sheriff's Office said Savoie allowed Omarion Bailey to drive his vehicle, while he was riding in the passenger seat of the 2003 Infiniti.
The shooting happened around 2 p.m. on Dec. 8.
Deputies said the two spotted an 18-year-old man they had a previous fight with, driving a late model Cadillac at the intersection of Fort Stanton and Gray Hawk.
Bailey allegedly fired a handgun several times at the vehicle, striking it and a 7-year-old boy.
The young boy was being driven in a truck by his 18-year-old brother.
The wounded child was transported by Life Flight to Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital.

A 6-year-old was also in the vehicle, but he was not injured.

A man has been charged in a Katy shooting that sent a 7-year-old boy to the hospital.
A neighbor said he heard as many as six gunshots outside of his home.
Another neighbor said she returned home with her daughter and saw a deputy bent over, examining the street.
"My daughter said he's looking for something," she said. It was bullet casings.

A few houses away, another neighbor said she heard gunfire as well, and she assumed it was a drive-by shooting.
"I heard cars speeding away on the street," she said, "and I saw an Escalade driving away fast."
She said another neighbor told her that same truck appeared to have a window that had been shot out.
The 7-year-old's family created a Gofundme account to help with medical costs.
