Drake's $100 million Toronto mansion devastated by floods as singer shows extent of damage
Rapper Drake was seen trying to limit the damage to his $100 million mansion in Toronto, Canada, as floods continue to devastate the area
Drake's $100million home has been left flooded in Toronto, Canada.
The rapper, 37, showed off the devastating scenes on his Instagram Stories, but appeared to make a joke out of the situation. Filming from inside his lavish property which spans over 50,000sq ft, the God's Plan singer showed the dirty rushing water flowing throughout his property as people tried to limit the damage.
At the start of the clip, his assistant is seen desperately trying to lock the doors to his living space and what appeared to be a walk-in closet in a bid to limit the stream. The singer then walks throughout the property with a small sweeping brush in his hand as the murky water comes up over his shin.
Captioning the upload, Drake, who was wearing a dark top and red shorts, joked: "This better be Espresso Martini," making a jibe at the colouring of the flow.
The scenes come as large parts of Toronto have been hit with storm damage after three huge storms devastated the area, leaving many stranded and without power. On Tuesday, Toronto is said to have been hit with almost four inches of rain on a single day, breaking a record which had stood for over 80 years.
The flooding at Drake's place comes just months after the huge property was the scene of a 'drive-by shooting'. On May 7, the Hotline Bling hitmaker's security guard was shot while "standing outside of the gates, in front of the home," according to a statement from the Toronto Police to The Mirror.
The alleged shooting took place after the security guard was "lured outside," sources alleged to the Toronto Sun. According to the local reports, the unnamed employee was reportedly coaxed outside by a car that was blaring loud music outside the lavish home.
It's alleged suspects inside the vehicle then opened fire on the guard after he came outside to investigate, and struck him in the upper body.
Days later, at 3.30pm EDT on May 9, law enforcement were called again but before they could arrive at the scene, the rapper's security guards reportedly broke into a physical altercation with the trespasser. After the police and an ambulance arrived at the scene, the intruder was transported to the hospital, the Toronto Police Service told TMZ.
