NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – A wedding day celebration ended in tragedy Sunday. 
 
 It happened in the town of Shandaken in Ulster County Sunday at 11:23 p.m. 
 
 Two NYPD officers, one of whom was a groom celebrating his wedding day, were killed when their rental Maserati left the road, police said. 
 
 Michael Colangelo, 31, had just gotten married. He was from Huntington Station and had been with the NYPD for 10 years. He was assigned to the Emergency Services Unit K-9 squad. 
 
 His neighbors on Long Island were stunned by the news. 
 
 “How could you not feel bad? His life was just getting started,” Jimmy DeAngeli said. 
 
 New York State Police said just before 11:30 p.m. Sunday, Colangelo had just left a reception at Full Moon Resort and got into the Maserati with John Martinez, 39, who also worked for the NYPD, and another friend. The car was winding around Oliveria Road when it veered off the road, hit a tree, and flipped over before landing on its roof. 
 
 Gregory Zaff heard the crash from his home nearby and rushed over to find the crushed car and one passenger trapped inside. 
 
 “The father from one of the deceased, he was screaming so bad and banging on a car,” Zaff said. “It was unbelievable and lasted for minutes, the screaming.” 
 
 Colangelo and Martinez were not wearing seatbelts and were ejected from the front seats. Police have to wait for autopsy results to determine who was driving. 
 
 A 28-year-old man was belted in the back seat and was rushed to Albany Medical Center where he’s expected to survive. 
 
 “As far as we can tell, they were taking this car for a ride,” said Major Pierce Gallagher of the New York State Police. “They were about a mile away from the venue.” 
 
 Gallagher said there was a “violent impact” and rollover, “so the speed was probably excesive for that roadway.” The limit on the road of the crash is 40 mph. 
 
 “Our entire city is keeping the families and loved ones of Officer John Martinez and Officer Michael Colangelo in our prayers,” Mayor Bill de Blasio Tweeted. 
 
 Colangelo’s neighbors are mourning the loss of the NYPD veteran. 
 
 “He just got the dog trained for the job and the two of them working together and everything he had to look forward to, but we’ll miss him,” neighbor Chuck Weindorf said. 
 
 Outside the Hauppauge home of Martinez, fellow officers gathered to show support for his family. The 16-year veteran worked at the 84th Precinct in Brooklyn. 
 
 “Great guy, that’s all they’ve been seeing,” NYPD Chaplain Rev. Michael Lopez said. “Great and outstanding guy and they loved him here.” 
 
 Investigators are waiting for the surviving passenger’s condition to improve to get a clearer picture of what happened. They’re also waiting for the return of the toxicology report to see if alcohol was involved. ||||| Two NYPD cops – one of whom was the groom on his wedding day – were killed when their rented Maserati crashed upstate, authorities said Monday. 
 
 Michael Colangelo, 31, a 10-year officer with the NYPD’s ESU K-9 unit who had just gotten married, and Officer John M. Martinez, 39, who was assigned to Brooklyn’s 84th Precinct and had 16 years on the force, were killed in the Sunday night crash in Ulster County, state police said. 
 
 Both men, who lived on Long Island, were pronounced dead at the scene of the crash on Oliverea Road in the town of Shandaken. 
 
 A third person in the car, 28-year-old Cody Kalina of Wantagh, LI, suffered non-life threatening injuries and was rushed to Albany Medical Center. 
 
 State police said Martinez, a married father of two from Hauppauge, was driving the 2018 Maserati on Oliverea Road when the high-end sports car “left the roadway and struck a large tree” before flipping over and coming to a rest on its roof about 11:23 p.m. 
 
 Colangelo, a resident of Huntington Station in Suffolk County, and his wife, Katherine, a registered nurse, had just had their wedding reception at the Full Moon Resort in the Catskills. 
 
 The victims were less than a mile away from the reception at the time of the crash, an investigator with the state police said. 
 
 Colangelo and his wife were planning to honeymoon in Costa Rica, according to an account on HoneyFund.com. 
 
 “We’ve lived together quite a while with all our pots and pans, and as we don’t need very many home goods we’ve got another plan! We know it’s not traditional but it would be a lot of fun, to have some items on our wedding list that will help us catch some sun!” reads the profile set up by the couple. 
 
 “So if you’d like to give a gift to send us on our way, a donation to our honeymoon would really make our day! Then while we’re relaxing on the beach, or by the pool so blue, we’ll sit back and know that it is truly thanks to you!!” 
 
 Police sources said Colangelo and Martinez met while working for the NYPD’s elite Emergency Services Unit – where Martinez recently worked before moving to the 84th Precinct. 
 
 Neighbors were shocked by the tragic crash. 
 
 “He’s a neighborhood guy. He loved his work. He was on 10- or 12-hour shifts,” Raymond Spatafora, 62, said of Colangelo, who lived next door to him. 
 
 Spatafora said Colangelo would always bring home his canine partner “Jimbo” every night. 
 
 “It’s terrible. Very, very sad. He just got married. His wife was very, very nice. She was quiet. She worked a lot of hours as a nurse,” the neighbor said, adding that Colangelo “would have barbecues and have a lot of his friends over in the backyard.” 
 
 Spatafora called Colangelo “an all-around good guy.” 
 
 “I was shocked [to learn the news]. All of a sudden when you’re talking to somebody one day and the next day you don’t see them — it’s terrible,” he said. 
 
 Martinez was the father of a 10-year-old girl and an 8-year-old boy, law-enforcement sources said. 
 
 Officers at the precinct were taking the loss “very hard,” the Rev. Michael Lopez, a department chaplain, told The Post after consoling the cops Monday. 
 
 “He was a great guy, a great upstanding guy, and they all love him,” Lopez said.
