LMPD Maj. Brian Kuriger said police were called to a park near the Big Four Bridge around 9:05 p.m. when they found three juveniles with gunshot injuries.

MARCH FOR OUR LIVES RALLIES PUSH FOR GUN CONTROL AFTER MASS SHOOTINGS
"We know the park was filled with a lot of people," Kruiger told a group of reporters near the park. "Parents, please, on the weekends, we enjoy the fact that juveniles are coming down here and enjoying the park. But they need to be supervised. We need to have supervision."
"This is family area, we want it to stay a family area. But at this time, we are seeing a lot of juveniles that are being unsupervised and all kinds of things are occurring," he added. "If a parent was here, it could possibly deter that."
LMPD also said it would be increasing its police presence at the park.

Police are continuing to investigate the incident and no arrests were announced.
