11-Year-Old Girl Calls 911 After Sisters Stabbed by Uncle in Brooklyn

News summary

In a harrowing incident in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, an 11-year-old girl called 911 after her uncle attacked her and her three sisters—ages 8, 13, and 16—with a meat cleaver. The girl, despite her injuries, relayed crucial information to the dispatcher, enabling police to locate the home quickly using location technology. Upon arrival, officers encountered the 49-year-old suspect, Longqian Chen, who was holding a blood-covered weapon; they had to shoot him after he refused to comply with commands. All four girls were found with serious stab wounds but are expected to survive. Family members indicated that Chen has a history of mental illness, although there was no prior record of domestic violence at the residence. Police have praised the bravery of the children, particularly the 11-year-old, for their quick actions that likely saved lives.
