Iman Osman, a native of Somalia and recent addition to the Lewiston City Council, has resigned from his position representing Ward 5 just days after being sworn into office. The resignation comes in the wake of a felony indictment related to firearm theft and an ongoing investigation into his residency status within the district.
Osman, who also leads the Lewiston Auburn Youth Network, a nonprofit organization, submitted his resignation less than 72 hours after taking office on January 5.
