A vigil honoring the victims of the Sikh temple shooting in Wisconsin was held tonight in Jersey City.
The vigil was held by the Iselin-based Sikh American Chamber of Commerce.
Organizers say they chose Jersey City for its proximity to Manhattan, where many Sikhs live and work. Hudson County is also home to the largest concentration of Sikhs in New Jersey, numbering nearly 15,000.
