Huang's mother-in-law wandered down the street, badly bloodied, seeking help. According to 'ABC News,' many were at first unsure whether or not the mother was a survivor or the perpetrator. Footage obtained by 'TMZ' from eyewitnesses showed Chen Chen Fei's mother walking through the street, sword in hand, seeking the help of the authorities.

According to the 'Daily Mail,' it appeared that she was walking with the sword out in order to attract the attention of police or anyone who would be able to help her. She placed the bloodied Samurai sword on the street next to a U-Haul truck per police orders.

Fei's mother led authorities to her daughter's body. The mother, whose name has not been released, is currently in the hospital in stable condition.

While Weichien has been arrested, it remains unclear what began the domestic dispute.
