CLEVELAND — Cleveland police are investigating after a 28-year-old woman was killed and seven men were hurt at a nightclub on the city's east side.

According to the department, officers first responded to Club X-Rated, 3232 Lakeside Ave., around 1:15 a.m on Saturday. Upon arrival, they found multiple people had been shot including a woman who was later pronounced dead at the hospital. Her name has not been released.

Based on the preliminary investigation, it appears patrons who were attending an event for local rap artists got into a fight and shots were fired both inside and outside the club. Seven men were taken to MetroHealth Medical Center and University Hospitals for treatment. Their conditions are not known.

So far no arrests have been made.

Anyone with information on this case is asked to call detectives at 216-623-5464.
