Woman Followed and Fatally Stabbed in Her Chinatown Apartment
The New York Times
Christina Yuna Lee was a creative producer at a digital music platform. The 25-year-old man arrested in her killing had a record of misdemeanor arrests.
A 35-year-old woman was stabbed to death inside her Lower Manhattan apartment early Sunday by a man who had followed her from the street and into her building, the police said.
The woman, whom police identified as Christina Yuna Lee, was the latest person of Asian descent injured or killed in a string of random attacks in New York City, many of them committed by people who had severe mental illness.
Surveillance video obtained by The New York Post shows Ms. Lee being trailed to her building on Chrystie Street in Chinatown by a man who catches the door behind her and follows her inside. In the video, Ms. Lee enters the building vestibule just minutes before 4:30 a.m. and walks down the hallway and out of the camera’s view as the man, identified by police officials as Assamad Nash, 25, trails her.
