Four people including a 9-year-old girl were shot in the Wabash Park area near Parkway Drive and Boulevard, Atlanta.

Atlanta police responded to a shots fired call about 8:30 p.m., they found four people including a child shot. Atlanta police spokesman Officer Lukasz Sajdak said that, all the people were breathing and conscious.

Neighbor Caron Clements said that, “You cannot keep endangering our children. These are our future.”  “These children deserve a chance.”

According to the Police, they believe the shooting happened in the park but they don’t have any suspects.

“It's not fair. These children ain’t got nothing to do with any beef y’all got and so don’t bring it,” Clements said.

Atlanta police Maj. Paul Guerrucci said that, “It is a large crime scene. Motive has not been established. We are talking with individuals that have provided us some degree of information,”
