The 28-year-old victim was taken by private vehicle to an area hospital with a gunshot wound to the leg from the 5:45 p.m. shooting at the Park View Terrace Apartments in the area of Third and Fourth streets, Deputy Police Chief Gregory Halstead said.
His injury wasn't considered life-threatening, the deputy chief said.
The night before, police chased down a city man who they said shot a rival he was having an ongoing issue with at the same apartment complex, barely a block from Thursday night's gunfire.
