A Nottingham man was convicted of first-degree murder after a five-day jury trial in Harford County Circuit Court last week.

Anthony Sean Ross, 32, was found guilty of first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit first-degree murder and other firearms charges related to the April 2022 fatal shooting of a 38-year-old Edgewood man, according to a Harford County State’s Attorney news release.

On April 12, 2022, the Harford County Sheriff’s Office responded to a shooting in the 100 block of Reider Court, in Edgewood, and found Angello Osborne, 38, of Edgewood, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. Osborne later died from his injuries.

In 2023, police said a preliminary investigation revealed that Osborne had arrived home from work and was talking with an acquaintance on FaceTime in front of his apartment building when he was shot. Osborne was approached by several individuals who chased and shot at him as he tried to flee, police said.

After the shots were fired, a gray car with dark tinted windows parked near a dumpster was seen leaving the area, police said. Investigators identified Joseph Ashley, 30, of Perry Hall, as one of several individuals involved in Osborne’s death.

Ashley was on home detention and wearing a GPS ankle monitor at the time of the shooting and the ankle monitor helped investigators place Ashley at the scene as well as pursue others who were involved, police said.

He was sentenced to 10 years in prison with all but eight suspended after submitting an Alford Plea to a felony charge of accessory after the fact first-degree murder on Dec. 20, according to court records. Ashley will have five years of supervised probation after his release.

Lashaun Denis Lloyd, 41, of Raleigh, North Carolina, was also charged with accessory after the fact first-degree murder and accessory after the fact second-degree murder in connection with Osborne’s death. He has a pre-trial conference April 1 in Harford County Circuit Court.

During Ross’s jury trial, police testified that 22 shots were fired at Osborne, with three hitting him in the back, the news release said.

Sentencing for Ross has not been scheduled. He will be held at the Harford County Detention Center pending sentencing.

“This conviction represents a significant step towards justice for this victim and his family and serves as a reminder that Harford County will stop at nothing to investigate, charge and prosecute violent criminals,” Harford County State’s Attorney Allison Healy said. “It is my hope that closing this very long chapter of the judicial process will bring a measure of closure to this family and deter others from further violence in our community.”
