The homeless man who allegedly slaughtered a 35-year-old woman in her Chinatown apartment over the weekend has been charged with murder, police said Monday.

Police radio transmissions mentioned a woman screaming, a male climbing out ;00onto the fire escape with something in his hand a blood on him. The male then retreated back into the building. Officers on scene set up a perimeter and called for the Emergeny Service Unit who went in and apprehended the male at approx. 6:00AM. EMS was requested to the top floor forthwith but never came out of the building with any patients. The suspect was removed to Bellevue Hospital

Assmad Nash was hit with murder and burglary charges.

Murder victim Christina Yuna Lee

Christina Yuna Lee had only been in the unit for less than a year.

Nash is accused of following Christina Yuna Lee into her Chrystie Street apartment just after 4 a.m. Sunday, stabbing her to death as she cried for help and screamed to neighbors, “Call 911!”

Chilling surveillance footage obtained by The Post shows Nash tailing Lee from the moment she returned home. As the woman made her way up six flights of stairs to her apartment, Nash followed close behind and forced his way into the apartment just before the door closed.

When police arrived at the unit, Nash, who has more than a half-dozen arrests dating back to 2015, tried to escape using the apartment’s fire escape and then barricaded himself inside when he was spotted on the stairwell.
