The Pittsburgh Sikh community will hold a candlelight vigil Saturday evening honoring the victims of last weekend's shooting in Wisconsin.

The event will be held at the Pittsburgh Sikh Gurdwara in Monroeville from 7:30 to 8:45 p.m.

U.S. District Attorney David J. Hickton will be present along with other local public leaders, said Chitratan Singh Sethi of the Pittsburgh Sikh Gurdwara executive committee.

Six people were killed when white supremacist Wade Michael Page opened fire in a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wis., on Sunday.

For more information about the vigil, call 256-479-6822.
