Angela Ng, an 11-year-old girl from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, tragically died on August 10, 2020. Angela, who was of Asian descent, was suffering from a terminal illness, specifically bone cancer, which had led to a devastating prognosis. She was undergoing aggressive chemotherapy and was scheduled to have her leg amputated later that month. Despite her illness, Angela was known for her participation in dance recitals and martial arts, showcasing her resilience and spirit.
On the morning
of August 10, 2020, Angela was at home with her parents when a tragic incident occurred. Her father, Kenbian Ng, shot her in what authorities have described as a murder-suicide. The incident took place around 9 a.m., and it was Angela's mother who alerted the police after hearing gunshots from another room. When the police arrived, they found Angela deceased at the scene, while her father was still alive but critically injured. He was later pronounced dead at the hospital.
The investigation revealed that Kenbian Ng, Angela's father, was the perpetrator of the crime. Authorities believe that the stress and emotional toll of Angela's terminal illness may have contributed to his actions. The case was classified as a murder-suicide, and since the suspect, Kenbian Ng, was deceased, no further arrests or litigations were pursued. The tragic event left the community in shock, mourning the loss of a young life and the circumstances surrounding her death.
