After Gandhi Mahal Restaurant caught on fire during the uprisings, the daughter of the owner took to their Facebook to update their patrons and offer support in favor of Floyd and the Black Lives Matter movement.

"Hello everyone! Thank you to everyone for checking in. Sadly Gandhi Mahal has caught fire and has been damaged. We won’t [lose] hope though, I am so [grateful] for our neighbors who did their best to stand guard and protect Gandhi Mahal, [your] efforts won’t go unrecognized," read the Friday post from the daughter of owner Ruhel Islam.

Today reports that during the onset of the uprisings, the restaurant was used as a place for protesters to protect themselves from the police.

"Don’t worry about us, we will rebuild and we will recover," the post continued. "This is Hafsa, Ruhel’s daughter writing, as I am sitting next to my dad watching the news, I hear him say on the phone; 'let my building burn, Justice needs to be served, put those officers in jail.' Gandhi Mahal May have felt the flames last night, but our firey drive to help protect and stand with our community will never die! Peace be with everyone, #JusticeforGeorgeFloyd #BLM."

Gandhi Mahal’s show of support has gone viral and racked up tens of thousands of Facebook shares.
