BEDFORD HEIGHTS, Ohio -- A Bedford Heights man missing in action still hasn't been found, according to NewsChannel5.
Army Spc. Brandon Sloan (pictured, left), 19, was part of a convoy that made a wrong turn near An Nasiriyah Sunday.
There will be a prayer vigil at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Historic Greater Friendship Baptist Church, located at 12305 Arlington Ave., in Bedford Heights. The vigil will honor Sloan, as well as all the 14 other soldiers reportedly captured or missing in Iraq.
Sloan's father, the Rev. Tandy Sloan, won't be leading the vigil, but he is expected to address the congregation briefly.
The vigil will be open to the public, and at least 400 people are expected to attend.
