PBA President Patrick Hendry is quoted in the NY Post, amNY, and in the opening of the amNY editorial: “P.O. Didarul Islam was a hero from the moment he put on our uniform. When pure evil showed up on his post last night, he stood between that evil and innocent people. Police officers are mourning him as a friend and co-worker, but we ask all New Yorkers to honor him as the hero he was.”
