NEW YORK—Hundreds of people from the Chinatown neighborhood in Manhattan, New York, gathered in front of the homeless shelter at 91 East Broadway to mourn the deaths of two Chinese who were randomly attacked and killed by homeless suspects.
Michelle Alyssa Go, 40, was killed last Saturday when Simon Martial, a homeless man, pushed her onto the subway tracks. In another incident, 61-year-old Yao Pan Ma was beaten while picking up garbage in East Harlem on the evening of April 23, 2021. He later died of serious injuries. Footage from surveillance cameras showed that the attacker kicked him on the head repeatedly at least six times after he was knocked down to the ground.
