On the night of January 11–12, 1991, a basement gambling den on Tyler Street in Boston’s Chinatown was the scene of a brutal attack that left multiple men dead. Chung Wah Son, 58, was shot three times in the head and arm near the door; he died almost instantly. The establishment required a buzz and video identification for entry, but three armed men forced their way in around 2:30 a.m., announced a robbery and opened fire. Four other men were killed in execution-style shootings and a sixth survived with serious injuries.

Authorities later identified the three assailants as Siny Van Tran, Nam The Tham and Phạm Tiến Hùng, connected to the Ping On gang. The trio fled to Atlantic City and then Hong Kong. Two suspects, Nam The Tham and Siny Van Tran, were eventually extradited in 2001 and were convicted in 2005; Phạm Tiến Hùng remained at large. Does anyone have information about Chung Wah Son or memories of the Chinatown community at that time that could help shed light on his life or the case?
