Toledo group says Chauvin verdict is just the beginning on long road to necessary change

Just days after a jury found former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin guilty of the murder of George Floyd, there seems to be a sense of renewed hope.

Community members gathered at the Floyd street mural at Lagrange and Summit in north Toledo on Sunday.

People believe the verdict can be a catalyst for change.

"This is a win," said Toledo artist David Ross. "This is a victory, but it's just the start of the conversation, it's not the end."

Ross helped create a large mural of George Floyd on a building on Summit and Lagrange last July. He says the artwork stands as a memorial and reminder to never forget what happened.
