CANTON LAKE, Ill. (WLS) -- Police say a mother and her two sons beat up a black teenager while yelling racial slurs at a campground southwest of Chicago over the weekend.

According to police, Carrie Weller, 42, and Corry Weller, 21, were arrested at the Canton Lake campground at 4:35 p.m. Sunday after officers responded to a call of a fight in that area.

Investigators said that racial slurs and threats were made to the 15-year-old victim during the incident. Police said the Fulton County State's Attorney will be adding charges of mob action and hate crime in addition to the battery charges already filed.

Police are searching for a third suspect, Shane Weller, 19, who remains at large. He is also Carrie Weller's son, and police said he will be charged with battery, mob action and hate crime once he is apprehended.

The 15-year-old victim had minor injuries and did not require medical attention, police said.

Canton is located about 200 miles southwest of Chicago.
