Little Village restaurant nearly finished with repairs after break-in thanks to community support

CHICAGO - Update (5 p.m., Saturday): 

A Little Village restaurant that was recently vandalized is on a quick road to recovery thanks to support from the community.

On Saturday, The Black Vegan Restaurant posted on Facebook saying they have already replaced the front door after having boarded it up temporarily as a result of the break-in. The restaurant received monetary donations from community members and customers after their insurance wouldn't cover all the repair costs. 

One of the glass windows has a large hole from the break-in, and the store owner said it appeared as if someone "maybe tried to punch their way in and they stopped." The window is currently boarded up.

The restaurant has raised 75% of its monetary goal to complete the repairs from the break-in. 

"Thank you guys! We are almost there at our goal," the store owner said. 

 At last check, no arrests have been made in connection with the break-in. If you are looking to help, visit the restaurant's website for more details.
