At least three teenagers were hospitalized Monday night after a shooting in southwest Atlanta, authorities said.
Atlanta police responded around 8:40 p.m. to 165 Northside Drive, less than a half-mile from Mercedes-Benz Stadium, after receiving a call about a person shot.
When officers arrived, they found the teenagers, aged 16, 15, and 15, suffering from gunshot wounds, according to police. The victims were conscious and breathing after the shooting, though one is in critical condition, police said.
“Preliminary investigation indicates the shooting appeared to be related to an ongoing dispute between a juvenile male suspect(s) whom the victims appear to be familiar with,” police said Tuesday morning.
An investigation is ongoing.
