  • Horrifying images taken at daybreak today show the extent of the damage in Lahaina, the Maui town that was entirely torched by a merciless wildfire on Tuesday.
  • Thirty-six people were killed, dozens injured and hundreds remain missing as a result of the fire that remains a mystery to many residents.
  • Local officials still do not know the precise origin of the fire. It spread quickly and ferociously because it was fanned by strong winds from the passing Hurricane Dora.
