Missing homicide detective Joe Calabrese found dead
The veteran NYPD homicide detective who went missing on Thursday, sparking a massive manhunt, was found dead of an apparent suicide, police sources said.
The body of Joe Calabrese, 58, was found near bushes in Plumb Beach in Brooklyn Thursday afternoon, dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head, police sources said.
“I don’t understand it. I don’t understand why he would do this,” said a stunned police officer who knew Calabrese.
The detective, who was assigned to the Brooklyn South homicide squad, was last heard from around 2 a.m., after he left Maimonides Medical Center in Borough Park, where his wife had undergone a minor procedure, according to sources.
