The males, whose ages were not immediately known, were taken to John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County, one in serious-to-critical condition and the other two in fair-to-serious condition, Fire Media Affairs Director Larry Langford said.

No one is in custody as Area North detectives investigate.
