Dak Leong was 19 when he was killed in a targeted shooting at Winnie's Lounge in Manhattan’s Chinatown on the evening of February 8, 1990. The attack occurred during an ongoing, violent conflict between rival gangs in the neighborhood and was carried out by members of the Vietnamese-American gang Born to Kill. The same shooting also killed another man, Peter Wng.

The assault has been described as part of a campaign by Born to Kill to assert control amid clashes with the Flying Dragons and the Ghost Shadows. Authorities identified Born to Kill’s leader, David Thai, as the orchestrator of the Winnie’s Lounge attack. The NYPD mounted a major investigation into the gang following the killings, leading to arrests and a prosecution that placed responsibility for Dak Leong’s death on those involved.

Does anyone have memories of Winnie's Lounge or the Chinatown gang conflict from that period that could shed more light on what happened?
