US authorities are conducting search and rescue operations for at least two missing people after destructive wildfire engulfed Colorado towns destroying hundreds of homes and leaving thousands vulnerable
An overnight dumping of snow and frigid temperatures compounded the misery of hundreds of Colorado residents who started off the new year trying to salvage what remains of their homes after a wind-whipped wildfire tore through the Denver suburbs.
"We do believe we have two people missing and we are investigating," Boulder County Office of Emergency Management spokeswoman Jennifer Churchill said on Saturday. There is no additional information as to the whereabouts of the two, she said.Boulder County Sheriff Joe Pelle said on Friday it is a "miracle" that the fire had not taken a big human toll, given its ferocity and rapid spread.
Shocking aerial footage showed whole streets as little more than piles of smoking ash, destruction that appeared almost total but somehow left a few homes oddly untouched. Downed power lines are believed to have sparked grass fires in the tinder-dry landscape that were then fanned by winds gusting at more than 100 miles an hour on Thursday.
