RALEIGH, N.C. — A photo depicting a life-size doll that resembles
President Obama hanging from a noose is outraging people in North
Carolina and parts of Hampton Roads.
The photo has been circulating online and has several people concerned.
A Shell company spokesperson says the photo was taken at or near a Shell-branded site in Raleigh, according to WTLV.
Below is the response from Shell after being contacted:
“This is the action of one individual who is not affiliated with
Shell or any of our wholesalers or dealers. Shell does not condone
