Edward A. Caban (born September 8, 1967) is an American police officer who served as the New York City Police Commissioner from 2023 to 2024, having been appointed by Mayor Eric Adams, and resigning amidst federal corruption investigations.[1][2] He was the first Latino to serve as Commissioner of the NYPD.[3] During his brief tenure, he watered down the NYPD's misconduct rules for officers, reducing penalties for officers who commit various offenses.[4]
Caban previously served as First Deputy Police Commissioner under Keechant Sewell.[5][6]
