 White Sulphur Springs is home to the posh Greenbrier Resort owned by Republican Governor Jim Justice in southeastern West Virginia along the Virginia border. Rice, who is black, was playing with a pellet gun outside a recreation center in Cleveland on November 22, 2014 when he was shot and killed by Lohman seconds after Lohman and his partner arrived. The officers, who are white, told investigators Lohman had shouted three times at Tamir to raise his hands.
