Dahe Lin, 76, was charged after police officers found him on top of his 50-year-old daughter-in-law at their home at 1724 Suydam St., near Cypress Avenue. Lin had allegedly attempted to strangle his daughter-in-law before stabbing her in the neck. It is unclear what provoked the violent attack.

Lin has since been charged with attempted murder, criminal possession of a weapon, strangulation, and assault with intent to injure using a weapon. He will appear today in Queens Criminal Court.
