Federal investigators this week seized phones from New York City’s police commissioner and at least four top deputies to New York Mayor Eric Adams, according to people familiar with the matter.

FBI agents seized the devices Wednesday from the homes of several high-ranking city officials, said two people who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the ongoing investigation. The officials include First Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright; Philip Banks, the deputy mayor for public safety; his brother David Banks, the city’s schools chancellor; and Timothy Pearson, a mayoral adviser and former high-ranking New York Police Department official.

Federal investigators also seized devices from the home of Police Commissioner Edward Caban, one of the people said.
