A second teenager, Joshua Bell, was arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of 57-year-old Ying Zhu Liu, who was killed defending her husband and son from muggers. On September 9, Liu's husband, Shen Yan, was confronted by two suspects in their condo building, leading to a violent confrontation. Liu was shot in the face while trying to help her family. Earlier, another suspect, Dante Schaller, had been arrested on similar charges. The family has been left devastated by the tragedy.
The violent ordeal unfolded around 11 p.m. when the two ski mask-wearing suspects followed Liu's husband, Shen Yan, 61, into the condo's elevator around 10:50 p.m. and pulled a handgun on him.
When the elevator doors opened on the 8th floor - where Yan lived with his family - the dad saw his 32-year-old son, Lin Rong Yan, waiting for him in the hallway and delivered a chilling warning.
Liu, a home health aide, was pronounced dead at the scene.
Bell, who was last arrested in August of 2023 for robbery, according to cops, was awaiting arraignment Friday evening.
