Three defendants have been convicted in connection with a gang-related shooting case involving gunfire directed at vehicles carrying innocent bystanders.

The case involves Jamaal Jordan, Aubrey Galloway, and TyJohn Dossman, who were prosecuted by Deputy District Attorney Jordan Avey of the Major Crimes Unit.

Jury Finds Jordan and Galloway Guilty of Shooting at Occupied Vehicle

Jamaal Jordan and Aubrey Galloway were each convicted by a jury of shooting at an occupied vehicle.

Both men were also found guilty of two counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm. Jurors also found firearm-use allegations against them to be true.

Jordan later pleaded to a charge of being a felon in possession of a firearm.

Dossman Convicted of Firearm and Assault Charges

TyJohn Dossman was convicted of willfully discharging a firearm in a grossly negligent manner that could have caused injury or death.

He was also convicted of assault with a deadly weapon, with a firearm-use allegation found true.

Like Jordan, Dossman also pleaded to a felon in possession of a firearm charge.

Birthday Gathering Turned Into Violent Confrontation

According to prosecutors, the defendants are members of a criminal street gang.

On May 14, 2025, they were celebrating the birthday of one of their associates and shared posts about the gathering on social media.

Later that day, rival gang members reportedly drove into the area and circled near where the defendants were located.

Prosecutors Say Defendants Returned Armed and Masked

After spotting the rival gang’s vehicle, prosecutors said the defendants left the area to retrieve an AR-style weapon.

They later returned wearing masks and hoods while armed with firearms.

As they moved toward the area where they had seen the rival vehicle, gunshots were heard in the distance.

Innocent Bystanders Caught in Gunfire

Prosecutors said the defendants then opened fire about 20 times toward a vehicle carrying an innocent bystander.

Jordan and Galloway allegedly continued shooting, firing about 16 more rounds at another vehicle that also had innocent bystanders inside.

After the shooting, the defendants fled and discarded firearms and clothing, according to the prosecution.

They were later identified and arrested.

Sentencing Dates Set

Jordan faces a maximum prison sentence of 24 years and four months.

Galloway faces up to 22 years and four months in prison.

Dossman faces a maximum sentence of 17 years and four months.

Jordan and Galloway are scheduled to be sentenced on June 8, 2026, at 1:30 p.m. Dossman is set to be sentenced on June 26, 2026, at 9:00 a.m.

The hearings will take place in Department KC before Judge Deborah Lobre.

Impact and Consequences

The convictions mark a significant outcome in a case prosecutors described as gang-related violence that placed innocent members of the public in danger.

The case also highlights how quickly social media activity, gang rivalry, and firearms can escalate into public shootings.

For the defendants, the convictions could result in lengthy prison terms. For the community, the case underscores ongoing concerns about gang violence and bystanders being caught in retaliatory confrontations.

What’s Next?

The next major step is sentencing.

Jordan and Galloway will return to court on June 8, 2026, while Dossman will be sentenced later that month on June 26, 2026.

At those hearings, the court will determine the prison terms each defendant will receive.

Summary

Jamaal Jordan, Aubrey Galloway, and TyJohn Dossman were convicted in a gang-related shooting case after prosecutors said they fired at vehicles carrying innocent bystanders.

The shooting followed a birthday gathering, social media posts, and the arrival of alleged rival gang members in the area.

All three defendants now face possible prison sentences, with sentencing scheduled for June 2026.
