  • The local community is rallying round to fund a replacement van for the Hemel Hempstead business.

The owner of a food truck in Oakland, California, expressed devastation after her truck, known as the "Tacos El Tucan" truck, was set on fire and destroyed in an arson attack early in the morning. The incident occurred around 2 a.m. and was captured on surveillance video, showing a person igniting the truck before fleeing the scene. The owner, who had been operating the truck for about a year, mentioned that the truck was not only a source of income but also held sentimental value as it was a family business. The Oakland Fire Department and police are investigating the incident, with no suspects identified yet. The community has rallied around the owner, offering support and donations to help her recover from the loss.
