Suspects Sought in Stabbing Death of Arcadia Man

The Los Angeles Police Department has released a sketch and surveillance video of three suspects in the stabbing death of 75-year-old Arcadia resident Min Yin.

At 8 a.m. on Sept. 2, Yin was working at the Joy & Louis Corp.—a men and boys clothier on the 1300 block of 18th Street in Los Angeles—when the first of the three suspects arrived to pick up an item purchased Aug. 30.

As the suspect left the store, the two other suspects arrived and reportedly forced themselves inside. A struggle ensued, and one of the suspects allegedly stabbed Yin. All three suspects then fled the location. Meanwhile, Yin remained in critical condition at Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center for nearly four months until he died Dec. 26.

The first suspect is described as a 6-foot tall Hispanic man in his late 40s who weighs around 180 pounds and has dark hair with brown eyes.

Also described as a Hispanic man, the second suspect is approximately 5-foot-4, heavy set, with short dark hair. He has small eyes, a dark complexion and a tattoo on the left side of his neck. He is believed to be in his early 20s. 

Police described the third suspect as a Hispanic man in his early- to mid-30s, who stands between 5-foot-5 and 5-foot-8-inches tall, weighs approximately 200 pounds and has dark hair. He wore a striped shirt.
