If people left their cars & ran out, why are all the doors closed?
They’re finding bodies in those cars, basically pulverized. Fires overtook the cars that quick, that nobody had time to get out?
This is one of the reasons they’ve locked the place down.

🚨 JUST IN: Death toll from Maui, Hawaii fires has reached 36
The town of Lahaina looks absolutely apocalyptic. There is practically nothing left.
Winds from a distant hurricane fanned the flames of a wildfire, engulfing the resort town with very little warning.
People fled however they could—some by even jumping into the ocean to escape the blaze.
"We just had the worst disaster I've ever seen. All of Lahaina is burnt to a crisp. It's like an apocalypse," said Lahaina resident Mason Jarvi, who escaped from the city.
The media seems to be rushing to blame this all on “climate change.”
@AbeFroman Unfortunately this is happening all over the US. Hawaii has been pushing out all it’s local people for years. No one can afford to live there anymore, and the places you potentially “could” afford? Trash.
@AbeFroman The last time I went spelunking like this was when I was in high school in Hawaii! It wasn’t that small a space, but close!😵💫I remember thinking I was gonna get crushed to death and stuck lol 😂 of course now- my ass is much bigger, there’s no way in hell I would fit!
