Charles Bryant and Nayquan Miller, both 16 and of Queens, placed an order for Chinese food from the Ming Garden restaurant on Guy Brewer Boulevard in South Jamaica. Eighteen year-old Huang Chen who was working in his parent's restaurant so that his sister could attend Stony Brook University, responded to the order but when he arrived at the apartment he was greeted by an act of vicious racist brutality reminiscent of the antigay bias crime, which victimized Matthew Shepherd in Wyoming. This time instead of a fence-post in a snow-covered field, the victim ended up in a frozen murky pond. After first beating the defenseless boy with baseball bats, the two sadistic thugs pulled out knives and stabbed him to death as he was pleading for his life.
After placing a plastic bag over Huang Chen's head, they tossed him into a shopping cart and wheeled him into his own car for the short trip to Brookville Park where he was dumped in a pond like garbage. Hours later, when police finally arrived at the address left at the restaurant for the delivery of the food, they found Nayquan Miller wearing a bloody shirt trying to clean large amounts of blood splattered on the ceiling and walls, graphically demonstrating the horror of the last moments of Huang Chen's young life.
The fact that a Chinese restaurant was targeted was no accident. A recent article in the New York Post described a new inner-city sport known as "Chink Bashing" which involves racist, premeditated assaults and worse on Chinese delivery boys.
