Woman Killed Defending Against Robbers, Second Suspect at Large

A 16-year-old is facing murder charges in the fatal shooting of a woman in Chinatown on September 9. The suspect, whose name hasn't been released due to his age, is charged with second-degree murder, robbery, burglary, and weapon possession. The incident occurred when two male suspects followed the victim’s husband into their building, attempting to rob him. When the victim's son tried to intervene, he was pistol-whipped, and the suspects shot the wife as she came out to help. A second suspect remains at large.

Ying Zhu Liu, 57, was shot and killed Monday night while defending her husband from robbers in their lower Manhattan condo building. The incident occurred around 11 p.m. on Market Street. Liu had buzzed her husband into the building and was waiting with their 32-year-old son on the eighth-floor hallway. As her husband struggled with two masked suspects in the elevator, Liu intervened but was shot in the face. The robbers, described as wearing a half red, half black hooded jacket and a black hooded coat, fled with the husband’s cell phone. Liu’s husband and son were unharmed. The suspects are still at large, and police are actively investigating the crime.

Emergency services on the scene have confirmed one fatality and two injured. It is unclear how the two additional victims were injured.

The suspects are described as Black males aged 15-20 years-old. Both suspects were last seen wearing all black.

Police advise that the two teen shooting suspects stole a cell phone.

A 911 caller has reported an unconfirmed incident at 44 Market St.
