U.S. marshals searching for Rahm’s former city comptroller

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:
An arrest warrant was issued Friday morning in Ohio for Amer Ahmad — Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s former city comptroller — for violating the terms of his bail after pleading guilty to corruption charges in that state, and the U.S. Marshals Service is now searching for Ahmad.

Authorities are seeking to arrest Ahmad, 39, after they “received credible information that Ahmad had violated the conditions of his supervised release,” said Fred Alverson, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney’s office for the Southern District of Ohio. “The U.S. Marshals Service is conducting the search for Mr. Ahmad.”
No word yet from Rahm Emanuel's friends at CNN on this story.
