A 29-year-old man was killed during a drug deal on Cleveland's west side overnight.

Cleveland police say the man was at a home on West 52nd Street with another woman when a teenager came over to buy marijuana. 

As the teen was attempting to buy the drugs, two other men came into the home through the back door, armed with guns. 

They tried to bind the 29-year-old man with duct tape and a fight ensued. One of the suspects shot the man. 

He was pronounced dead at the scene from multiple gunshot wounds. 

No arrests have been made and a specific description of the suspects was not available.
