Toledo’s George Floyd mural at Summit and Lagrange collapsed today. A city building inspector says it was “just age. It just came away.” They had noticed it bowing recently. pic.twitter.com/pXcFqfznFc

Local media reports that the ‘north Toledo mural has been reduced to rubble’ after being struck by lightning. Fire and rescue responded to the site of the mural, but were unable to render aid to the collapsed wall featuring Floyd’s face.
UPDATE: Witnesses have told authorities that the George Floyd mural was struck by lightning before it collapsed. https://t.co/u0QHZVh7Zp

Unable to render aid, too far gone, Fentanyl will do that.
Media sees omen seeks shelter.
Poetic justice, karma or an act of God.
Good. I am sick of seeing that criminal’s face.

Lightning does not always strike the tallest nearby object, if there are more conductive objects in the area. Also, with bricks strewn everywhere, it's hard to see any possible marks where the lightning bolt jumped to ground.
My guess, based on comments that the wall had been "sagging", is that there was a gutter or roof leak which allowed rain water to seep into the gap between those layers of brick. Not only would that present a target for a lightning strike, it would also flash into steam when struck, doing exactly the sort of damage pictured.

Bush’s fault - Dick Cheney’s weather machine!
“God works in strange ways.”
Evidently God was not thrilled with the canonization of St. George Floyd.
It takes a close look at 9/11 and shows where God is in the details.
A fun, but sobering read.
Those fallen bricks look like leggos
Maybe Zeus can target the Floyd statue next!
Gotta be made up. Don’t tease me like that. Not nice. I was praying all sorts for a modest sized meteor a few months ago, first on the Vatican and then DC. Just enough to take out a few cockroaches. Nuttin.
So, you’re telling me a targeted lighting bolt can be ordered up? Well, bring back out the shrine. Here we go again.
Next target? Ooh, ohh, I know. Beetlejuice’s next press conference wherein she blames all the black lives lost in Chicago under her tenure on legal gun sales in neighboring states.
Not the Bee...
I agree.
It is that people have tried to make him out to be this man with out fault or as if he had no agency in his own death.
These memorial walls make him in to a secular saint.
This I see as mocking God.
George Floyd Murals across the USA.
The lighting has a lot of murals to work with
