Description:

On the evening of July 3, 2008, officers from Chang'an Police Station in Dadong District, Shenyang City tried to arrest Ms. Chen Yumei on Pangjiang Street. During the arrest, they brutally beated and kicked her. Many bystanders witnessed the brutality, and saw that Ms. Chen passed out from the beating.
At around 9 p.m. on the same evening, a 110 emergency police vehicle arrived at Ms. Chen's home, and her family was asked to identify her in an ambulance. Her family identified her, but she was in a coma.
Ms. Chen was taken to #463 Military Hospital. The doctor found a large amount of bleeding in her skull, and said that she must perform an operation immediately. Her family collected a ten thousand Yuan deposit for the operation. After four-hours of the operation, she was unconscious. Her family saw that her arms and legs were covered with bruises, and her body had severe scratches. Doctors said the marks were caused by being beaten or dragged. The doctors spent 10 hours trying to revive her, but failed, and she died at around 8:30 p.m. on July 4, 2008. Her family said that she left home around 8 p.m. a healthy woman, but died less than 12 hours later from police brutality.
While her family took her to the hospital, several police vehicles ransacked Ms. Chen's home. They took many Falun Gong books, DVDs, and materials.
