Public schools on Maui are starting the process of reopening and vehicle traffic is moving again in signs of recovery a week after wildfires demolished a historic town and killed at least 110 people.
Hawaii officials provided another update on the devastating wildfires in Maui. Governor Josh Green said the confirmed death toll now sits at 110 people while emergency teams continue search and rescue efforts. Meanwhile, Maui County Mayor Richard Bissen and the Maui Emergency Management Agency answered reporter questions about public trust, response times and decisions. Power lines have been mentioned as a potential cause of the fire, an official cause has yet to be determined.
Criswell said she would accompany President Joe Biden on Monday when he visits Maui to survey the damage and "bring hope." "Some of the sights are too much to share, or see, just from a human perspective," Green told Hawaii News Now on Tuesday. "For him, there is no moving quickly," Buen said. The stories from survivors who fled the fast-moving flames terrified her.
On Tuesday, the county released the names of two victims: Lahaina residents Robert Dyckman, 74, and Buddy Jantoc, 79. They were the first of five who have been identified. Maui Police Chief John Pelletier renewed an appeal for families missing relatives to provide DNA samples.
