Three teens were seriously injured late Friday when they were shot at a Cobb County shopping center, according to Smyrna police.

About 11:30 p.m., officers responded to the Cobb Center in the 2100 block of South Cobb Drive, spokesman Louis Defense said.

The victims were shot multiple times and were taken to local hospitals, Defense said.

One of the victims is in serious condition, police said. The other two victims’ injuries are not thought to be life threatening.

No identities were released, and police say they are working to find a motive for the shooting.
