Two of the suspects, both 17 years old, have been arrested and are in jail. Police are searching for a third suspect, aged 18.
“One of them climbed onto the counter and then jumped down onto my son,” Sam Jackobeit, the victim’s mother, told Channel 2 Cobb County Bureau Chief Michele Newell.
Rumors spread online that the teens were from nearby Sprayberry High School, but the suspects do not attend any high schools in Cobb County, according to police reports.
