CLEVELAND — Following the shooting that left one person dead and 17 others injured on Saturday, a vigil is being held this evening in the area of E. 93rd Street and Way Avenue.
East 93rd Street will be closed to vehicle traffic from Aetna Road to Prince Avenue during the course of the vigil.
3News sent crews to the vigil and streamed it live on Facebook and YouTube,you can watch what happening in the player below.
Cleveland Police say there was an anniversary party at the location hosted by the "Omens Motorcycle Club." They are a national biker club with a group in Cleveland, though their Facebook page does not share much about the group.
Police say members of other local and national motorcycle clubs were in attendance, including "the Zulus" and "the Wheels of Soul." A fight broke out between two clubs and as people were being escorted out, shots were fired and exchanged.
Investigators now believe some of the shooting victims may also be suspects. The police department is conducting interviews right now to determine what happened.
Councilman Kevin Bishop, who represents the ward where the shooting happened, was one of many to respond to the shooting. He said in part:
"It’s unclear where the groups were from but I am telling all involved that the citizens of Cleveland will not stand for any retaliatory bloodshed. This needs to end here and now. I am confident that the Cleveland Police will find the perpetrators and they will be charged and pay for these actions."
Mayor Frank Jackson also responded, saying:
“The loss of life is a tragedy, no matter the circumstances and I extend my condolences to the victims in this incident. Once again, the easy availability of guns and the disregard for life leads to tragedy."
