During his work at Ground Zero, Officer Weintraub inhaled various toxins which were present in the air, which led to the onset of Cholangiocarcinoma and eventually to his death.
Officer Weintraub had served with the New York City Police Department for 15 years, and is survived by his wife and two children.
You walked into it and it took years to finish the job.
Police Officer Weintraub gave the New York City Police Department 15 years.
Thank you for your service to the New York community. Gone but never to be forgotten.
Rest easy, Police Officer Weintraub.
