SARATOGA — A candlelight vigil in Congress Park marked International Overdose Awareness Day. The event, held at the Spirit of Life statue, was created in memory of those who have lost their battles with addiction. Advocates say drug overdose deaths in New York, mainly to prescription drugs, have increased 56 percent since 1999.
