A detective has been found dead at a Sydney police station.
The body of a male police officer was found at Ermington Police Station in the city’s southwest at around 12.30pm on Monday, NSW Police said.
He is believed to have been shot with his police issue gun, the Daily Telegraph reported.
The 46-year-old detective sergeant from a specialist command was on-duty at the time and initial inquiries suggest there are no suspicious circumstances.
