Defendant ambushed victim outside his Dyker Heights home, left him bleeding in driveway
A 43-year-old Dyker Heights man, Jianqing Chen, has been sentenced to 15 years in prison followed by five years’ post-release supervision for the attempted murder of his ex-wife’s work colleague, Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez announced on Friday.
The victim, with whom the defendant’s ex-wife carpooled to work, was found severely injured by his 16-year-old daughter after the attack in their driveway.
“This was a life-altering attack on a completely innocent man who was lucky to be found by his daughter,” Gonzalez said. “I am committed to keeping the people of Brooklyn safe from violence. With today’s sentence, the defendant has been found accountable for his actions.”
