Fire crews thaw rapper Drake’s giant ice installation in Toronto
Fire crews were called to the waterfront in Toronto early this morning to thaw out a massive ice sculpture installed by rapper Drake. The installation, which spelled out the word “LOVE” in giant letters, had been attracting crowds since it was unveiled as part of a Valentine’s Day promotion.
According to city officials, the sculpture posed a safety risk as unseasonably warm temperatures caused pieces of ice to start melting and fall off. Firefighters used hot water to melt the ice and dismantle the sculpture, ensuring the safety of onlookers.
Drake, who commissioned the installation as a surprise for his fans, has not yet commented on the incident. However, his representatives have stated that the rapper is grateful to the city and the fire department for their prompt action in resolving the situation.
The installation had quickly become a popular spot for fans to take pictures and admire the artwork. While some expressed disappointment at its removal, many understood the need for public safety to take precedence.
The city has reassured the public that they are working with Drake’s team to potentially create a new installation that is both safe and enjoyable for the community.
