KB Balla suffered the fate that many businesses did this weekend after rioters and looters ravaged cities across the Unites States in the wake of George Floyd’s murder at the hands of police in Minneapolis.
Balla’s story went viral after an interview showing him weeping in helplessness looking at the aftermath, with looters even entering his and his wife’s establishment that they poured their life savings into while the interview was being conducted.

Balla set up a GoFundMe in hopes of receiving some sort of compensation in order to hopefully one day reopen, and not only did the public find the page, they delivered.
Hundreds of thousands of donations later, Balla’s campaign has surpassed a whopping $1 million.
The campaign can be found HERE.
Here are some photos of Balla, his family, and his now destroyed business:
