The Gazebo Where Tamir Rice Was Killed To Be Displayed At Museum
The gazebo in Cleveland, Ohio where 12-year-old Tamir Rice was killed is being moved to be put on display at a museum in Chicago.
The structure was dismantled on Wednesday and will be loaned to the Stony Island Arts Bank after the Tamir Rice Foundation, which is led by Tamir’s mother, agreed to loan it to the museum. Initially, Samaria Rice, was reluctant to conserve the gazebo altogether after she and the city of Cleveland agreed to demolish it, according to Rice’s family Attorney Billy Joe Mills. However, eventually, Mills told ABC News that Tamir’s mother “and those around her began to realize its historical significance and importance of preserving it.”
