A veteran New York Police Department detective who survived cancer linked to 9/11 has died from complications of the coronavirus. Detective Robert Cardona, who has an 8-year-old son, had been with the department for 19 years. “Today we lost another great detective to COVID-19 complications,” said Chief Rodney Harrison on Twitter. More than 4,000 members of the NYPD have tested positive for the coronavirus, and at least 26 officers have succumbed to the illness.
