Police were seeking a woman for questioning in the death of a 55-year-old man in the Rockaways section of Queens, a department spokesman said yesterday.
The man, Eric Goodridge, died from homicidal violence, including gagging and neck compression, a spokeswoman for the city medical examiner’s office, Ellen Borakove, said.
Police had not released an identification of the woman. Officer Martin Speechley said her identity was known to authorities, and “we’re still looking for her.”
A police report said the victim was found unconscious in an apartment early Saturday afternoon and died at the scene.
