I'm not going to say none, but I would venture a likely guess would be less than 1%.
According to Wikipedia, "About 900,000 gang members lived "within local communities across the country," and about 147,000 were in U.S. prisons or jails in 2009."
So, that's around 1,047,000 total gang members living in the US as of 2009. The 2009 US population is 306,800,000. So, in 2009, gang members made up 0.341% of the total US population.

I think it's likely a small number as your are talking about the overlap of two very minor segments of the population that most likely have little in common.
Of course there will be some but I think we'd hear the WTS promoting stories of them and their sad lives if there were many.
