Another exchange of gunfire rocked St Kitts yesterday but fortunately left no serious injury.

One man was shot in on of his legs during the shooting, which happened last night in Upper Shaw Avenue in Basseterre.

He is currently in a stable condition, police said.

One source said that masked men arrived in a black vehicle before firing several rounds.

"Preliminary investigations revealed that Parris was in the area when unknown assailants began shooting at him from a vehicle," according to a statement from officers.

"He is currently listed as being in stable condition. The scene was processed and a number of items were recovered and taken into police custody."
