The city of Paterson honored members of a local mosque who jumped into action after their imam was stabbed earlier this month. The number of heroes seen on surveillance video are almost too many to count. Christinafantv reports.
"We heard the imam screaming, 'Somebody is trying to kill me,'" said Manny Simrin Moneer.
"We see this big guy running through the middle of the mosque with two knives in his hand," Moneer said. Paterson's mayor, along with other dignitaries, honored the heroic actions of dozens of worshippers Monday, commending their bravery in restraining the suspect who continued swinging at them with knives.
