St. Petersburg Police Department (SPPD) said two men were arrested for attempting to block FDOT crews who arrived to paint over the street mural on 9th Avenue South, west of 22nd Street South.
The mural was a Black Lives Matter mural, which was installed in June 2020.
Around 8 p.m. Friday, Andrew Oliver, 49, and Benedict Atherton-Zeman, 59, walked by police officers and sat down on the road attempting to block FDOT machinery, SPPD said.
Police arrested both men after they refused to move.
They were charged with Pedestrian obstructing or hindering traffic and obstruction, officials said.

Not black but down wit da struggle oi vey.
You really thought it would be black people? The crazy wokes are always white.
Black Road Kill Doesn’t Matter.
A mural by definition is on a wall or upright structure, meant to be preserved, not on a street where it is driven over and degraded.
“I’m not black, but I’m offended on their behalf. They’re just not smart enough to be offended themselves, so a white person needs to step up where they are clearly unable to”.
BLM isnt even a legit movement, they dont give a rats ass about black lives, they never did..blacks get murdered every single day on the streets of Chicago and they just yawn about it
The two (heretical) pastors and I very likely agree on next to nothing, if not nothing.
Having said that, I respect that they are following the protocol of civil disobedience: they are nonviolently breaking the law, and they allowed themselves to be arrested and presented before court. There has been very little of that among the left for the last, oh, fifty years.
That’s because blm is nothing but a pack of con artists.
They’re false teachers and should be avoided as such.
Would appear to be old white hippies.
Both are churches who start their prayers with “To ehom it may concern”.

The only purpose for BLM spelled out on the pavement or a crosswalk resembling thr fag flag is to incite some punk on a crotch rocket or a yahoo in an F-150 to spin tires on them and be charged with hate crimes. Seems like entrapment
Thank you. I was about to post that it isn’t a dang mural. It is paint in the street.
They want a “Black Lies Matter” MURAL there they should buy a building there and paint it on the walls.
Oh, and isn’t a MURAL supposed to have some sort of artistic value, not just boring, artless block letters?
