Two NYPD officers are being honored by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani<\/a> after jumping into action to thwart an alleged ISIS-inspired terror attack outside Gracie Mansion over the weekend.\u00a0<\/p>\n

NYPD Chief Aaron Edwards and Sgt. Luis Navarro received high praise from Mamdani and New York City Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch at a press conference on Monday, just days after both men put their lives on the line to stop a potentially catastrophic terrorism attack after two explosive devices were dropped at a protest on Saturday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Edwards reportedly jumped over a barrier and tackled Emir Balat, 18, to the ground after he allegedly hurled an improvised explosive device<\/a> at a group of protesters and was about to throw a second batch handed to him by Ibrahim Kayumi, 19.<\/p>\n

As the chaos unfolded, Navarro ran towards a second improvised explosive device as it was lit and smoking after allegedly being dropped on the ground by Balat, “without hesitation and without regard for [his] own safety,” Tisch said.<\/p>\n

Mamdani thanked both men for their bravery after also recognizing them in a private meeting.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“That is courage, that is selflessness, and I am deeply grateful to both of them and to every member of the NYPD<\/a> who works every single day to keep New Yorkers safe,” Mamdani said.<\/p>\n

Edwards was recently promoted to borough chief of Manhattan, north in December of last year after serving nearly 23 years as an NYPD officer, according to<\/u><\/a> the New York Post.<\/p>\n

Edwards was inspired to become an officer after the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks<\/a> on New York City.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I was a college student back in September 2001,” the new commanding officer of the NYPD\u2019s Patrol Borough Manhattan North told the Post last year. “I saw what happened, and I took one of the first tests” for the academy.<\/p>\n

“I saw it, I felt it. When everyone was running out [of the Twin Towers], we had our police officers and the other first-responders running in. I thought that was selfless heroism. It just drew me to the profession,” Edwards said. “Since I started, I fell in love with policing.”<\/p>\n

On Monday, Tisch said the officer\u2019s actions on Saturday followed the same theme of his inspiration to join the department.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We saw that same spirit carried forward in the way that he responded,” Tisch said, according to<\/u><\/a> the New York Daily News.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Navarro has reportedly been on the force for 11 years and joined the NYPD after a friend encouraged him to take the exam. Like Edwards, he was promoted to his current rank in December.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Both Balat and Kayumi are facing federal terrorism charges<\/a> stemming from the alleged attack.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The NYPD did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
