A 45-year-old woman found with blunt-force injuries in San Jose last week died at a hospital on Tuesday, police said.
The victim, identified by police as Thanh Xuan Luong, was found by officers who responded to a suspicious circumstance call at 10:14 p.m. on Dec. 19 in the 200 block of Stagehand Drive.
Luong was taken to the hospital, where she eventually succumbed to her injuries, police said.
Them Luong on Thursday remembered Xuan as a loving wife and mother. They just moved from Vietnam about three years ago.
"She was kind, everyone loves her," Them said through a translator. "She cared for her husband, her family, her daughter."
Them said his wife was robbed in their driveway after she returned home from work at around 9:30 p.m.
"He thought it was a long time that she didn't come in yet," his niece told NBC Bay Area. "So he went outside and then he saw the car, but he didn't see her."
