Four young girls were slashed with a meat cleaver in Brooklyn on Sunday morning when a relative went on a deranged and bloody rampage — before he was shot by cops, officials said. The suspect, identified as Lun Chang Chen, 49, was also rushed to the hospital and is in critical condition, police said. He is believed to have lived in the home where the horror unfolded. The motive for the brutal assault is under investigation.
