An NYPD detective assigned to the office of Police Commissioner Edward Caban was arrested over the weekend for shoplifting in a Long Island Home Depot.
Detective Spec. Christina Cancel, 54, who made more than $150,000 in NYPD salary last year, was charged with stealing $160 worth of merchandise on Saturday, said Suffolk County police.
Cancel, of Hicksville, was in a Home Depot in Deer Park when she allegedly took $130 worth of merchandise at around 10:12 a.m. and another $30 worth just before noon, Suffolk cops said.
Court records show she stole a six-port electronic tool charger and a Beyond Bright Ultra light worth $128.97 in total, along with a USB three-port charger worth $29.97. In each instance, she allegedly put the items in her shopping cart and blew past the cash registers toward the parking lot, records show.
Under questioning, Cancel gave a false name and date of birth, police said. The court records said she claimed she was āLisa Lopezā and repeated the phony moniker after a cop warned her that she could be charged for giving a fake name.
She was arrested at 1:41 p.m. Saturday and finally gave her real name after she was taken to Suffolkās 1st Precinct. She was suspended by the NYPD later that day, records show. Cancelās suspension is without pay, police said.
She was charged with false personation and two counts of petty larceny, court records show.
Cancel declined comment when reached by the Daily News.
She joined the NYPD in 2004 and made $156,311 in fiscal year 2023, including $36,372 in overtime, city payroll records show. In fiscal year 2022, she made $121,290.
In 2015, Cancel was charged with using another copās password to search an NYPD database for personal reasons and for failing to report an unspecified off-duty incident that required police response, police records show.
She was found guilty and lost 10 vacation days in that incident, the records show.
Cancel later was assigned to the Citywide Traffic Task Force before moving to the police commissionerās office, NYPD personnel records show. The records indicate she was promoted last year from police officer to detective specialist.
A NYPD spokesman declined to say what her responsibilities were in the commissionerās office. The spokesman also declined to say why the department did not disclose Cancelās arrest as it does routinely when cops or other city employees are arrested.
Cancel told WNYC in 2004 she joined the NYPD at age 35 after working for a financial investment company. She was assigned to Midtown South at the time.
Cancel is next due to appear in 1st District Court in Suffolk for a formal arraignment on Jan. 26.
