(WSB Radio) Three people were taken to local hospitals after what police describe as a random shooting in Northwest Atlanta.

Authorities said someone walked up to the Neighborhood Grocery on Northside Dr. at Meldrum St. around 5 a.m. Saturday and just opened fire.

Two men and a woman were hit. Atlanta police officer Eric Schwartz told WSB one victim was shot in the back, another in the leg, and a third in the ankle. Two of the victims were transported to Grady Hospital, while the other drove with a friend to Emory University Hospital Midtown.

Witness told police they saw someone drive away from the scene in a gray vehicle. Police said they have no motive and the victims don't know the shooter. There was no argument before the gunman opened fire, police said.

    This story is yet another reason why I never go into that city without being armed with my legally carried concealed Glock.
