An NYPD detective dubbed the “Italian Sherlock Holmes” will finally be getting a gravesite marker nearly a century after his death, the Daily News has learned. Members of the Detectives Endowment Association will unveil the headstone for Detective Joseph Pucciano at Brooklyn’s Green-Wood Cemetery on Tuesday.

Pucciano, a heralded gang-buster and member of the NYPD’s famed Italian Squad in the 1920s, died July 13, 1928, of pulmonary tuberculosis, members said. He repeatedly graced the pages of the Daily News with reports of his headline-grabbing arrests.
