I know violence within the Asian American community is nothing new... it just seems like these days, the news is all coming at once. Last week, 20-year-old Kate Yi, a nursing student at Cal State Long Beach, was strangled to death in her apartment by her boyfriend Jonathan Huynh: CSULB student dies from asphyxiation strangulation.
Huynh was arrested on Saturday night, with bail set at $1 million. The investigation is ongoing. Police are gathering information about Yi and Huynh's relationship and looking to see if Huynh has a criminal record. Anyone who has information about the incident can contact LBPD Detectives David Rios or Daniel Mendoza at (562)570-7244.
