Would you ever use your laptop at a public place (ex: coffee shops. malls, school)?


34 y/o Shuo Zeng was the Starbucks Customer who DIVED at 2 masked men who stole his LAPTOP right from his table and DIED while trying to get it back!!

It happened in California where 2 men in masks went into the coffee shop to steal the laptop as they planned a getaway in advance.

He was celebrating his 34 y/o birthday and lived a mile and a half from the Oakland Starbucks as friends had been looking forward to celebrating both New Years and his birthday on the same day he died.

He was from China who completed a degree at Kansas State in 2015

His devastated parents are flying in from China to their ONLY SON as he did not have a family of his own yet. A cousin who is living in New York is also making their way there.

He moved to the Bay Area in 2015 to work as a research scientist and engineer for Aspera, an IBM company

He's an avid photographerand hiker who enjoyed photography

Friends and neighbors said he was a "really bright guy" who was happy being in America and enjoying life and that he was a brave young man to attempt to get his property back

Julie, who witnessed it said they were sitting next to Zeng as he worked on his laptop when one masked man held a door open and the other walked right by Zeng and swiped the laptop as they exited the store. She then said Zeng chased the men and to their SUV where he DIVED at the window, almost FULL BODIED before he was pushed out of the vehicle and he hit his head on a parked car and died.

She said it was almost "superman" like when he dived horizontally into the vehicle..

Zeng was found dead on the sidewalk as people described his face was all bloodied and turned blue/purple..

Dailymail was told 2 men were arrested for the death but have not released the names. Police are warning the public NOT to pursue people who have stolen their property as you never know what could happen and that your life is not worth property that can be replaced.

Would you ever take out and use your laptop at a public place?

Well, that's a pretty shitty birthday.

Not sure what's really brave about it. He was just trying to grab back something an unarmed thief grabbed from him.

Which is good, if it's true.

I don't like doing it, but I have done it.

Yep if I had one. I've used my phone and tablet in public places so why not? I'd be worried if some random person came and sat next to me though without saying anything.

Why are they releasing his identity, but not the criminals who killed him?

And using your laptop in a public place is strange now? When the fuck did that happen? The whole point of it vs. a desktop is portability.

exactly right, why release his identity and not the scumbags? makes no sense.

Sounds like one of those traps in a cartoon. Say Epstein's laptop was stolen, so he chased the thieves. But unbeknownst to him, the thieves had set up a trap--a rope hanging from above. He ran straight into the noose head first, and the thieves pulled the rope up. Epstein hung in midair with a rope around his neck. Epstein didn't kill himself.

Most thieves tend to carry weapons that you can't can't see until they decide to use them, and even then most people (yourself included I imagine) would be too scared to directly confront a thug while unarmed and chase after them.

Because the dead have no privacy rights and prematurely releasing information about suspects can interfere with the investigation. If their names leaked then their images would leak and the defense would reasonably be able to argue that eyewitnesses who ID'd them after the info was available in the news were influenced by what they saw on the news, getting that evidence tossed out.

They really don't. And if they're carrying a weapon you don't know about, you wouldn't know to be scared by them. And most people who grab shit and run aren't the kind of people carrying weapons because the weapon would stop most people from running after you which almost every single male (and many females) --- even a guy like you --- would try to do.
