A massive mural to George Floyd, who died while in the custody of Minneapolis police, was destroyed on Tuesday after being hit by lightning.

As Fox News reports:

Witnesses told Toledo Police that a lightning strike destroyed the mural, and doppler radar shows a strike hit at about 4:30 p.m. Tuesday near where the mural was painted.

Photos of the destruction show part of the brick wall reduced to rubble, with fragments of mural still remaining on the wall along its border.

The piece, titled “Take a Breath,” was created by local artist David Ross about one year ago in honor of Floyd, who was murdered in Minneapolis last Memorial Day by police officer Derek Chauvin.

Ross said he received threats over the mural and speculated the destruction could have been caused by vandalism and not lightning.

Is the event just a coincidence or a kind of divine message? Let us know what you think in the comments below.

  1. God tell these ignorant people to recognize right from wrong. You do not treat a criminal like he was a saint.

    1. Now you made our savior mad . He’s stating that you do not idealize a common thug, criminal, drug dealer in the same class as a Saint. What’s he going to do next? Lookout you no believers, he’s just starting.

  2. I think every drug crazed criminal should be glorified with their own mural and/ or statue. This is the new norm.

  3. Allow the investigators time to issue a final report on this since the issue is so sensitive and then allow the mural’s friends to commence a restoration .

    1. Let’s not, based on his character, George Floyd, is not deserving of martyrdom. He was a stain on society. There are far many more, that are more deserving

  4. There is a God! George would be alive today if he did what the officers asked! ZERO deaths by police if you do what they ask! They want to be able to see their family every day and do not want confrontation!

      1. Patrciao……….
        …………..have you ever read about what happened to SODOM and Gomorrah. A QUOTE; “run for the mountains……don’t stop, or look back”.

    1. JUST WONDERING……….do you think that if Floyd was still alive today that eventually old Zeus at Mt. Olympus might whip up a very special bolt of lightning just for George Floyd. After it struck even his sneakers would be vaporized.

  5. The Lord God said in the second commandment, “You shall have no other gods before Me.” Need I say anything else?

  6. THAT’S A MESSAGE FROM GOD PERIOD! There’s no question’s about that. GOD will be the 1 to give his judgement for his death. Nobody else is suppose to give the RULING on that PERIOD!

    I know for a fact, YOU DON’T QUESTION GOD PERIOD! You put your trust in HIM and leave it at that.

  7. The Cop should not had been given such a severe penalty… George was no angel.. and unfortunately due to his drugs did not survive the arrest.. mistakes were made by all cops there.. it should not had fallen on just one.. STILL the number one cause of black homicides is Black on Black… Blame the libtards and their socialist principles to help the black.. to not help the black.. Jesus said don’t give it to them.. teach them how to fish…

  8. Loot a store..it was the evil White PO-LEECE that caused that lightning to hit the memorial for dat PO boy.

  9. I am excited to know that my prayer of asking God to please strike down and destroy that vile criminals poster! And now I’m praying He strikes down that disgusting statue! THANK YOU GOD FOR ANSWERED PRAYER!

  10. How often does this happen?! Of course it was God and He is not pleased with these people and His judgement is about to fall on all these corrupt monsters!

  11. Floyd was not killed by Chauvin DRUGS killed Floyd. Anyone with a Brain and an open mind can see this by watching the videos. Floyd was saying he could not breathe before police even touched him. Next if you watch the Vidors with an open mind and open Eyes you will see that Chauvin’s knee was on the base of Floyd’s skull. Even the complaint of Chauvin’s other knee being on Floyd’s back caused his death is WRONG because Floyd would have died well before 9 minutes passed if Chauvin’s full weight would have been on Floyd’s back. The Medicaly Examiner not shopped for by the Family found that it was a history of Drug use and failure of Floyd treating medical issues that killed him.

  12. God says, “You shall have no other gods before Me. You shall not make for yourself a carved image” (Ex.20: 3-4). God will not be mocked or blasphemed. His name is glorious, not George Floyd. God is Sovereign and in control, not George Floyd, or his followers.

  13. God is showing his power against all this tyranny going on. No honor should ever be paid to a total criminal like George Floyd. God will not put up with all this trash that’s going on in this country.

  14. Some without using their brain want a memorial to this idiot, but want to destroy the monument that have been already erected to show us OUR HISTORY and the people involved. Leave OUR MEMORIALS alone…..they show our good points and those that need to be remembered so as not to be repeated.

  15. Devine message. Falsely accusing others of racism for political reasons should be a crime. Floyd did not die due to racism. He died because he was loaded on drugs, committed a crime, and resisted arrest. He would still be alive if he did not do one or likely more of these things. He died because he was majorly stupid, not because he was black.

  16. Floyd started by overdosing himself. Chauvin assisted by holding him down til he died. God wiped out any mention of his miserable life. He was not a role model.

  17. I said when it was first reported that God is in charge . Hes given everyone enough rope and now he is pulling in the reigns.

  18. LISTEN UP….ALL will SEE the POWER of GOD in ALL its GLORY. GOD Means What HE Says….DEREK CHAUVIN Did NOT Get a FAIR TRIAL and PREZ TRUMP DId NOT Get a FAIR ELECTION. I STAND By GOD’S Word. I am HIGHER in RANK than a PROPHET. From SamuraiQueen. 😄😄😄

  19. I would say from the photos that in fact it does look like a possible lightning strike. It is definitely not from an explosion or the building would be more severely damaged, so the idea of sabotage is just liberal gaslighting.

  20. I believe this was God since He is on the move to take back this country for His Glory!
    People pay attention. You’ll be seeing more.

  21. AAN you need to CORRECT this bull shit statement
    “in honor of Floyd, who was murdered in Minneapolis”
    The piece of excrement drug addict died in custody after swallowing an elephants amount of fentanyl!! While constantly pleading with police to let him go, and being completely UNCOOPERATIVE!

  22. Everything is so backwards today. Praising evil and condemning good. Evil is good and good is evil. Praise God!

  23. Good.. he wasn’t a hero.. didn’t deserve bronze statues or murals
    It was sad that he died and the way it happened but cmon he wasn’t a saint

  24. I just can’t believe how stupid people have become. First off if you don’t break the law you don’t have to deal the cops. Second if you don’t do opiates you don’t die from not respiratory suppression. Then like in Georgia with Brooks if you don’t attack the police and take one of their weapons you don’t get shot.

    1. Laws are made to be broken. These people cannot function in society because they don’t respect laws, conventions, customs or simple civility. I was a criminal, and it was actually fun to play cat and mouse with police and the general public, until I was arrested. Then you realize what you’re doing has consequences. Eventually, if the criminal survives, they just might realize their behaviors will subject them to loss of freedom, and involvement in court cases, imprisonment, and recognition by police as a habitual offender. This man fit the latter description to a tee, and he subjected himself to the police tactics necessary to restrain suspects by force.

  25. Absolutely without a doubt, divine intervention. God does not honor EVIL in any form. The clown who painted the mural is talented, but should not glorify a career criminal, with no conscience or morals. Derek Chauvin was wrong to treat Floyd the way he did, but it wasn’t murder. Career criminals take their life into their own hands every time they commit a crime, and should not be glorified for it.
