Rubble remains where a mural honouring the life of George Floyd once stood after a lightning strike destroyed the piece.
According to CBS , the artwork by David Ross, created a year ago, collapsed into rubble after a bolt of lightning struck the side of a building with the mural in Toledo, Ohio.
However, officials are reportedly planning a new mural at a different location in Toledo.
Floyd died May last year after a white police officer pinned his knee on or close to the 46-year-old Black man’s neck for almost 10 minutes.

Former Minneapolis police Officer Derek Chauvin was sentenced to 22 1/2 years in prison for Floyd's murder. His death led to the biggest outcry against racial injustice in the US in generations.
With good behaviour, Chauvin could be paroled after serving two-thirds of his sentence, or about 15 years.
