JEFFERSON HILLS (KDKA) -- Family, friends and community members will gather today for a candlelight vigil for Jefferson Hills teenager Jeno Moretti.

The vigil will start at 6 p.m. on North Second Street in Elizabeth. Masks are required, along with social distancing rules.

On Friday, search crews found the 15-year-old's body in the Monongahela River near the Elizabeth Bridge. Teams from as far away as Maryland and Ohio, as well as regional responders, joined the search effort late last week after days of searching with no results.
