Three teenage boys were shot outside Camp Creek Marketplace in southwest Atlanta on Saturday night, police said.
All three juveniles, 14 and 15 years old, were in stable condition and were alert when they were taken to the hospital, Atlanta police spokeswoman Officer Stephanie Brown said.
Their names and ages have not been released. Police did not say if anyone is facing charges in connection with the shooting.
A preliminary investigation suggests the incident stemmed “from a fight between a group of juveniles that occurred earlier,” Brown said.
A witness told Channel 2 Action News he heard about 20 shots ring out.
We met a witness who says he was taking out the trash when he heard around 20 gunshots, saw teens run and victims be carried away. 3 boys shot, police said. Hear from that witness, next on #Nightbeat. pic.twitter.com/7SVu2i8lmY
