An NYPD sergeant from Babylon is back home after being shot in the line of duty on Thursday.

There was a sea of support for Christopher Leap as he left Bellevue hospital.

Officials say Leap was one of two sergeants shot in Manhattan while trying to arrest a man suspected of robbing a woman at gunpoint.

That is when the suspect allegedly pulled out a gun, shot the unidentified sergeant in the groin and grazed Leap’s leg.

City officials are praising their quick thinking and life-saving efforts.

Both sergeants are expected to be OK.

Police identified the suspect as 22-year-old Joshua Dorsett and took him into custody. Authorities say Dorsett is a known gang member and he was on probation at the time of the shooting.
