Cleveland police are investigating a shooting on Cleveland's east side that left an 18-year-old woman and a 24-year-old man dead overnight.

Officers were flagged down at the Valero gas station at East 93rd Street and Harvard Avenue for a report of shots fired around 2:50 a.m. Monday.

Police said the man was found on the ground in front of the gas station door and the woman was found on the street. Officers administered first aid until EMS arrived and transported the victims to MetroHealth Medical Center, where they were pronounced dead.
