Rock Hill event benefits officers’ families

ROCK HILL, S.C. (AP) — A Rock Hill restaurant is opening its doors to benefit the families of slain law officers.

The Herald of Rock Hill reports (http://bit.ly/xFC50b) that Nishie G’s is holding a Forever Blue Foundation fundraiser on Monday.

Fifteen percent of proceeds from the event go to help family members of law enforcement officers who have been killed in the line of duty. Anyone who eats at the restaurant or gets takeout and mentions the foundation’s name can participate.

The foundation was created by Rock Hill Police Officer John Rainier after Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Officers Jeff Shelton and Sean Clark were killed in the line of duty in 2007.
