Stepfather of Slain 11-Year-Old Boy Won't Face Charges in Road Rage Shooting
The stepfather of an 11-year-old boy who was killed in a road rage shooting will not be charged, according to Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson. Brandon Dominguez-Chavarria was fatally shot on the westbound 215 Beltway near Gibson Road during an altercation between his stepfather, Valente Ayala, and Tyler Johns. Prosecutors considered charging Ayala with child abuse, neglect, or endangerment but ultimately decided that his actions did not meet the criteria for those charges. Witnesses described Ayala as the aggressor in the incident, which escalated into a fatal shooting. Johns is facing murder and gun charges for the shooting.
