NEW YORK — An NYPD chief who died from cancer-related to Ground Zero was remembered Saturday when a Staten Island street was renamed in his honor.
Police Commissioner James O’Neill and NYPD Chief of Detectives Dermot Shea joined family members at the street renaming ceremony for former NYPD Chief of Detectives William Allee at the corner of Bascom Place and Collfield Ave. in Manor Heights, Staten Island.
Allee, 76, died from a 9/11 related leukemia in May 2018. He served 40 years with the NYPD and retired in 2003.
