Description
Detail is of the portion of the mural on the far right. Text reads, "Life's a jungle is about the obstacle's and battles that life gives. "Extra Extra read all about it" Monday I read an armed man fired into a crowd killing several innocent people the perpetrator was never captured it was suspected as gang related Tuesday a car bombing set to kill a navy captain was suspected as a terrorist act. Wednesday man finds himself jumping off a bridge soon after he was terminated from his job. Thursday fruit from Chile found poisoned million's stop eating fruit. Friday man just got paid he was on his way home when he was confronted by a male who asked for the time and forced jewelry and money from the victim and left to suffer from loss. Family lose's home on Saturday caused by fire authorities say the fire was caused by arson. Sunday I took a break from this jungle-- so until the jungle's obstacle's pass i'll stay to wonder if life will ever last. PEACE..."
