Two days after Horn Barbecue in Oakland was vandalized, it was heavily damaged by fire.

Alameda County's Board of Supervisors is now considering $100,000 in government aid.

Even before the fire, the restaurant struggled to stay open during the pandemic.

If approved, the funds will come from the pandemic's American Rescue Plan, which provided $350 billion to state and local governments.
