The victims were treated at a local hospital for non-threatening injuries and four of the nine children have been released from the hospital.

A preliminary investigation reveled that there was a party down the street where an altercation took place that then led to the Shell Gas Station leaving nine children injured, according to Chief Freddie Blackmon.

The entire Shell Gas Station off Warm Springs Road in Columbus was blocked off with crime scene tape Friday night as dozens of law enforcement officials from the Columbus police department and Muscogee Sheriff’s office were on scene.

On Saturday morning, authorities were back at the scene where the shooting took place… taking pictures, conducting interviews and blocking off areas back up with crime scene tape.

The youngest of them all, the 5-year-old was at the gas station with a family member and was not at the location where the party took place, according to Chief Blackmon.

No arrests have been made at this time.
