Mom, 4 kids killed in stabbing rampage
Print Edition
A mother and her four young children, including a toddler, were killed in a late-night stabbing rampage at their home in New York City, and a man has been taken into custody, police said yesterday.
Officers who arrived at the scene late Saturday found all five victims unconscious and unresponsive, police said.
Two girls, nine-year-old Linda Zhuo and seven-year-old Amy Zhuo, were pronounced dead at the scene, along with the youngest child, one-year-old William Zhuo. Their brother, five-year-old Kevin Zhuo, and 37-year-old mother, Qiao Zhen Li, were taken to hospitals, where they also were pronounced dead.
A man identified by police as a person of interest has been taken into custody, but no charges had been filed as of yesterday morning. Police said a knife had been recovered at the scene.
Fire department spokesman Jim Long said emergency workers responded just before 11pm to a call from a person stabbed at the residence in Sunset Park, a working-class neighborhood of adjoining two-story brick buildings.
Neighbor May Chan told the Daily News it was “heartbreaking” to learn of the deaths.
“I always see (the kids) running around here,” Chan said. “They run around by my garage playing. They run up and down screaming.”
