After losing business in riots, Minneapolis restaurant owner's van stolen outside home
After losing business in riots, Minneapolis restaurant owner's van stolen outside home
Minneapolis business owner Ruhel Islam is trying to remain positive through challenging times.
The Bangladeshi immigrant watched his restaurant, Gandhi Mahal, go up in flames during the rioting and unrest that followed the murder of George Floyd.
A social media post from Islam and his daughter in the aftermath grabbed attention far and wide when he wrote, "let my building burn. Justice needs to be served."
As he attempts to rebuild the now demolished site on East Lake Street - turning it into a community gathering space and garden - he quickly set up a scaled back restaurant less than two miles away. Curry in a Hurry is open for takeout, delivery, catering, and the summer patio season.

He is a much better person than I. Hopefully the van will be found.
