CLEVELAND, Ohio — A 19-year-old man was shot to death Tuesday inside a Cleveland library, police said.

The shooting happened about 6:30 p.m. at the South Brooklyn branch of the Cleveland Public Library on Pearl Road.

Brandon Cutnoe was shot and killed inside the library’s bathroom, Cleveland police Sgt. Jennifer Ciaccia said.

Cutnoe met another man at the library and the two got into an argument, according to police. The other man, who has not been identified, shot Cutnoe in the chest and abdomen three times.

The shooter ran away and has not yet been identified. A mother called 911 while hiding in the women’s restroom with her 11-year-old daughter, police dispatch reports say.

Cleveland Public Library Chief Marketing and Communications Officer Tana Peckham said the library will be closed on Wednesday and will re-open on Thursday. She said the branch security guards at the branch when its open, but do not have metal detectors.

“Cleveland Public Library, first and foremost, is focused on the safety of our patrons and our staff," Peckham said in an email. “We are working with law enforcement and defer any details of an investigation to them.”
