A vigil for the homeless man who was beaten to death in Bridgeport has been postponed.
The vigil for 49-year-old Daniel Engeldrum will be held at 6 p.m. Sunday at McLeavy Green.
Bridgeport police say they arrested Elijah Humphrey for the death of Engeldrum and are calling the man's death a hate crime.
They say Humphrey assaulted Engeldrum, 49, because of what Humphrey presumed was Engeldrum's sexual orientation.
