SEVEN HILLS, Ohio
The son of John Demjanjuk says immigration agents have served the suspected Nazi guard with a notice to surrender to an immigration office in Cleveland.
Demjanjuk, of Seven Hills in suburban Cleveland, faces deportation to Germany. An arrest warrant in Munich accuses him of 29,000 counts of accessory to murder at a death camp in Nazi-occupied Poland during World War II.
The notice was served Friday, one day after the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear the 89-year-old suspect's appeal to stop the deportation.
Demjanjuk Jr. did not say how his father would respond.
Lawyers in Germany are challenging the arrest warrant and appealing a Berlin ruling that says the decision lies with U.S. authorities.
