The Origin of Donnie McClurkin’s Death Rumor

About this time, rumors began circulating that the popular gospel musician was involved in a very terrible road accident, and had lost his life as a result of the accident which was fatal.
He, however, took to his Facebook page to address his fans and followers, as well as to inform the rest of the world that it was true that he was involved in a very ghastly accident that totaled the vehicle he was driving at the time. He further stated that he was currently at the hospital where he was receiving quality medical attention and that he was in fact very much alive and doing well.
The thing there was that while he was driving on the highway in December 2018, Donnie McClurkin suddenly passed out behind the steering wheel and lost all consciousness. His car then began swerving across the highway before it finally hit a concrete island in the median. He was rescued from the wreckage by fellow motorists on the highway who rushed to his aid.
When he came around to the hospital, he used his Facebook handle to thank the two motorists who came to his aid after the accident, calling them his own angels. The two motorists on seeing his car swerving on the highway had put on their hazard lights to warn other passengers. He hurt his knee and sprained his ankle during the accident, and had his thumb stitched as well.
