Atlanta police investigated an early Saturday triple shooting that left a 15-year-old girl dead.

The teenager’s body was found when police arrived at a home on Altoona Place in southwest Atlanta, according to Channel 2 Action News.

Two other people were found wounded at the residence, a young man and young woman, both of whom were taken to Grady Memorial Hospital for treatment.

Atlanta police spokesman Adam Lee said authorities were questioning possible witnesses.

“We have a subject, possibly more than one subject, that was on the scene that perpetrated the crime,” Lee told Channel 2.

Neither the dead teenager nor wounded man and woman were identified.
