NYPD Chief of Training Kenneth Corey will take over as the highest-ranking uniformed officer in the department.
Corey — who previously oversaw policing in Staten Island before being transferred to training earlier this year — will be named the NYPD’s chief of department, said incoming Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell.
The word on the upcoming appointment comes hours after The Post reported that Edward Caban would take over as first deputy commissioner, replacing Ben Tucker.
