Long Island, NY: Cops Release ID For Ex-Boyfriend In LIC Slaying

Police officials last week released a second photo of a 45-year-old Queens man sought in connection with the December 12 murder of a Long Island City artist.

Investigators are interested in questioning Tigran Tambiev in connection with the murder of Susan Wood, 49, whose body was discovered by friends on the kitchen floor of her second-story walkup at 43-35 10th St.

Tambiev, a furniture mover, had a rocky relationship with Woods that included several domestic violence incidents, police sources said.

Tambiev lived with Woods until recently, and had seen Woods with her new boyfriend shortly before she was stabbed to death.

Tambiev is described as 5-feet, 8-inches tall, 145 pounds, with green eyes and brownish blonde hair. He also has a 2-inch cut under his left eye, police said.

Anyone with information on Tambiev’s whereabouts is urged to call the Crimestoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS. The Hotline is offering a $2,000 reward to anyone with information leading to the arrest and conviction of a suspect.
