CLEVELAND — The Cleveland Division of Police is investigating a Thursday night shooting involving a Cuyahoga County deputy.
Around 9:30 p.m. at East 26th and Superior, a Cuyahoga County sheriff’s deputy shot and injured a 15-year-old boy, according to Cleveland police. The boy was treated and released, police say.
Three people on the scene were taken into custody, according to Cleveland police.
The deputy was evaluated at a nearby hospital and has since been released, according to Cuyahoga County Press Secretary Jennifer Ciaccia.
Police blocked off Superior Avenue and the on and off ramps to I-90 West Thursday night. A News 5 crew on the scene saw a white vehicle with bullet holes in the back passenger seat.
A witness said the white vehicle was involved in a high-speed chase before he heard numerous gunshots.
All this happened as a crowd left the Guardians game after the huge win against the New York Yankees.
Several agencies responded to the scene, including the Cuyahoga County Sheriff's Office and Cleveland Metroparks.
Ciaccia said the sheriff's office will cooperate with CDP on the investigation.
