Seven minors between the ages of 12 and 17 were hospitalized with gunshot wounds Saturday night. A suspect has not been found.

Seven minors were hospitalized with injuries late Saturday night after a mass shooting broke out in downtown Indianapolis, police said.

The children and teenagers, who were between the ages of 12 and 17 years old, each sustained gunshot wounds in the shooting, which happened just after 11 p.m. local time outside of the city’s Circle Centre Mall. CBS affiliate WTTV shared images from the scene.

No suspects have been arrested, but investigators believe more than one weapon was used to carry out the shooting, according to the Indianapolis Metro Police Department. A police report filed after the incident identified four boys and three girls as victims, all of whom were stable when Indianapolis Deputy Police Chief Tanya Terry gave preliminary details about the incident at a briefing early Sunday morning.

    To me it’s a little bit different when it’s groups of people who want to murder each other for personal reasons, compared to a mentally ill person wanting to lash out at society by murdering indiscriminately. I wish we bothered to talk about them differently, since they illustrate different problems within society and will have different solutions.
