Hawaii starts probe into wildfire handling, as toll hits 80 https://ift.tt/W9eLij8 attorney general Anne Lopez is opening a legal probe into the state's handling of wildfires that killed 80 people this week. The Maui county officials gave the updated death toll late on Friday, with 1,418 people currently at emergency evacuation shelters. Many citizens have criticised the official response to the tragedy, feeling abandoned and left to fend for themselves. Some, however, were joyous after finding their homes were intact, but all those who still have habitable properties have been warned that they may not be safe.
