A jury ruled Thursday that a man accused of the shooting death of Ma Kaing is guilty of murder.

In July 2022, Denver businesswoman Ma Kaing was unloading groceries outside of her apartment on Xenia Street when she was killed by a stray bullet. Four suspects, Nu Ra Ah La, Pa Reh, Lu Reh, and Swa Bay, were arrested in connection with the shooting.
