Help Rebuild El Camino Family Restaurant After Tragic Fire

On the early morning of September 10, 2024, the beloved El Camino Family Restaurant, a cornerstone of the community for over 30 years, was tragically destroyed by a devastating fire. The news broke just before 2:30 a.m., leaving the Perez family and their patrons heartbroken.

"Every day, we poured our heart and soul into El Camino. It was more than just a restaurant; it was a home for families, friends, and neighbors. The loss is overwhelming, and it has hurt every day since this happened," the owners expressed, struggling to come to terms with the emptiness left behind.

Authorities have labeled the fire suspicious, with surveillance footage revealing a man lingering outside the building moments before the flames erupted. The possibility of arson has added further grief and confusion to the situation.

Despite this dark time, the outpouring of love and support from the community has been a source of hope for the Perez family. They are determined to rebuild the restaurant, no matter how long the process may take.
