SUNSET PARK, Brooklyn (WABC) -- The heartbroken widow of the Good Samaritan who died during a stabbing outside an underground gambling den in Brooklyn is speaking out.
Jin Zhao, 39, still can't process the horrific nightmare - that her husband, Yong Zheng, a hero to his last breath, is gone.
"Still couldn't believe that he's gone," Zhao said through a translator.
On Friday night, Zheng was celebrating the lantern festival with some friends in Sunset Park, when they saw an Asian man being viciously attacked and robbed. With anti-Asian violence spiking across the country, Zheng did not hesitate to help.
By the end of the vicious fight, blood was shed and four men were stabbed - one of them fatally...that was Zheng, the Good Samaritan.
