Watts faces 23 years in state prison when he is sentenced on Feb. 3, according to prosecutors.
The shooting, which prosecutors described as “unprovoked,” happened around 1 p.m. on Sept. 2, 2020, near the intersection of 51st and West streets. Watts fired his gun multiple times into a parked car where two men were sleeping, injuring one of them.
In the statement, Chief Assistant District Attorney Royl Roberts thanked the jurors for their service and congratulated the prosecution team for their work in securing a conviction.
“This guilty verdict reaffirms that anyone who uses a gun to harm people in our community will be held to account for their actions in a court of law,” Roberts said.
