News regarding a new police commissioner comes after feds searched the offices of the NYPD's School Safety Division in Queens Thursday morning.

Mayor Eric Adams said Thursday he will soon appoint a new commissioner for the NYPD to replace interim Commissioner Tom Donlon.

"I believe commissioner Tisch has done an outstanding job with the Sanitation agency she has been flawless and totally committed to our constituents," the council speaker said.When asked about Tisch supposedly being on the short list to become commissioner, the Sanitation Department referred to a statement she gave on Monday, stating"I have been very clear that being the commissioner of the Department of Sanitation was my dream job.

Some documents sought in the search were believed to be connected to then-Schools Safety Director Kevin Taylor and SaferWatch, two sources familiar with the matter said. Questions have been raised about whether former Deputy Mayor Phil Banks and outgoing NYC Schools Chancellor David Banks played any role in the awarding of contracts that are currently under federal scrutiny, multiple sources familiar with the matter have said.

In a statement on their website, the NYPD detectives union acknowledged the investigation that involves Caban, his twin brother James and others, noting that"the scope of the investigation, and precisely who the targets are, remains unclear." The union also said members had been served subpoenas and search warrants at their homes during early morning hours, and reminded members that they are not required to speak with the agents.
