The officers were presented with the award for helping to nab three men in April after the men tried to rob a man at gun point as he exited the ATM lobby of the Bank of America in Malverne.
The ceremony is held each year to recognize law enforcement professionals from departments in Nassau County and within the Town of Hempstead. The recipients, town officials said, are nominated by their departments for their meritorious duty to the community.
