A West African man with a genetic kidney disease has taken refuge in an Ann Arbor church to avoid deportation. The AP reports that Mohamed Soumah will die without regular dialysis treatments. The 44-year-old University of Michigan employee has lived in the U.S. for 15 years, married an American woman but recently separated from her and now his work visa wasn’t approved. He was to be deported last month, but ended up in the hospital instead.
