One person is dead, another injured and a third person missing after a home invasion in Cleveland early Monday.

The 911 Communications Center received a call on Monday at 12:01 a.m. regarding shots fired at Springbrook Apartments, 2360 Blackburn Road.  

Cleveland Police Department officers responded to apartment #93 where they found a deceased male, identified as Adam Johnson, 18.

It was later discovered that a male juvenile, who fled the scene, had also been shot during the altercation and was transported by a private vehicle to Tennova.

At some point during the incident, an occupant in apartment 93 shot Johnson and the male juvenile. The third suspect, fled the scene and is still being sought by police.
