Tokyo Olympic Flame Taken Off Display; Next Stop Unclear


TOKYO — The Tokyo Olympic flame has been taken off public display in Japan. The flame arrived in Japan from Greece on March 26. After the Tokyo Olympics and the torch relay were postponed until next year, the flame was put on display in the northeastern prefecture of Fukushima. It was to remain on display through the end of April. “Tokyo 2020 will now keep the flame in an undisclosed location to prevent people from gathering,” Tokyo organizers said in a statement to The Associated Press.
