Police investigate Newport shooting

A 40-year-old Newport man was found with a gunshot wound early this morning at an apartment complex.

The Newport police say they received a call complaining of gunfire at 12:45 a.m. When they arrived at the Park Holm Apartments, they found Jermane Noka. He had a single gunshot wound to his left rib cage.

The police say Noka’s injury was not life threatening. The incident is under investigation.

This is the second shooting at the complex in the past two months.
