    Nothing short of heroic': Off-duty NYPD officer tackles gunman to the ground moments after he shot dead deli worker

    An off-duty city police officer is being hailed a hero for his quick thinking on Monday night when he tackled a man after a deli worker was fatally shot

    Steven Cohen entered the store with a gun and shot an employee in the stomach
    Off-duty officer Jason Maharaj wrestled the man to the floor and held the 63-year-old until more NYPD officers came

    Police Commissioner Shea called Maharaj's actions 'nothing short of heroic'
    The employee, Mohmediyan Tarwala, 26, was taken to hospital but died
    Cohen is charged with murder, attempted murder and two counts of criminal use of a firearm
