NYPD Commissioner Edward Caban resigns: Sources

Source: ABC News

New York City Police Commissioner Edward Caban is stepping down, multiple sources told ABC News.

Word of the resignation came in a letter from Caban’s attorney to City Hall. The resignation is effective Friday.

His resignation comes amid a federal investigation into possible corruption in New York City government that last week saw authorities seize cellphones belonging to Caban and other NYPD officials, according to sources familiar with the investigation.

In an email to the NYPD obtained by ABC News, Caban did not address the probe directly, only saying he made the "difficult decision to resign" amid "recent developments."

2. Seems that the city of my birth has a mayor who is both incompetent and a crook.
