The owners posted the letter on social media, pushing back against whoever wrote it and showing that they would not be bullied out of town.
Chatham County Sheriff's Office even opened an investigation into the letter, saying it may constitute a hate crime. A deputy was posted outside the restaurant to help with security.
The Siler City community then came out in droves to support the business.

A&I's Chicken Shack even had to close Sunday because it ran out of food.
