Candlelight vigil underway for Al Adi


YOUNGSTOWN — The support for Amer "Al" Adi Othman, known locally as Adi, just keeps coming.

More than 70 people are at Unitarian Universalist Church on Elm Street for a candlelight vigil to demand the release of Adi who is in the Northeast Ohio Correctional Center on Hubbard Road.

Adi, a downtown businessman, was taken into custody last week by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in an effort to eventually deport him to his native Jordan.
