Thu Sep 12 17:16:00 UTC 2024: ## NYC Police Commissioner Resigns Amidst Federal Investigations
**NEW YORK, Sept. 12** – New York City Police Commissioner Edward A. Caban has resigned, effective immediately, following a federal investigation that led to the seizure of his phone eight days ago.
Caban, 57, faced mounting pressure to step down after federal agents launched investigations into his office and the NYPD. The inquiries, which began earlier this year, focus on alleged misconduct involving Caban’s brother and enforcement practices surrounding nightclubs in the city.
This is the first high-profile departure from Mayor Eric Adams’ administration since the investigations began.
Last week, investigators also seized electronic devices from the homes of several top officials in the mayor’s administration, according to CNN. The extent of the investigations and the nature of the alleged misconduct remain unclear.
