CLEVELAND, Ohio — At least one person is dead, and others are injured in multiple shootings that happened overnight on Cleveland's east side.
Those shootings happened just minutes apart early Monday morning.
News 5 stayed just past the crime tape and followed investigators as they pieced together a deadly shooting.
Police shut down the area of Superior Road and East 110th Street after a 27-year-old man's body was found in the street just after 2 a.m.
That area remained closed between East 108th and East 110th streets as police processed the scene for hours.
Just minutes later, around 2:25 a.m., our Overnight News Tracker followed police as they were called to the area of Cleveland Road near St Clair Avenue.
Cleveland 5th District officers responded to 3 shootings in 43 minutes between 2:01a and 2:44a. One dead at Superior and E110. One transported from Cleveland Road and St. Clair and another transported from Calcutta and Waterloo. Crazy few minutes chasing all of this around. pic.twitter.com/abIwcQ52xe
