Wildfires Rage In Northern and Southern California

HeadlineNov 09, 2018

In other news from California, massive wildfires have scorched parts of both Northern and Southern California. The town of Paradise, about 90 miles north of Sacramento, has been devastated, after a fast-spreading fire forced tens of thousands to evacuate and burned over 1,000 buildings and homes to the ground. The fire reportedly killed multiple people in Paradise.
Meanwhile in Ventura County, the raging Hill Fire—not far from Wednesday night’s mass shooting—threatens to burn up to 30,000 acres as firefighters continue to battle the flames.
