Hundreds of homes are feared lost in fast-moving wildfires in the US state of Colorado, officials said Thursday, as flames tear through areas desiccated by a historic drought.
At least 1,600 acres have burned in Boulder County, much of it suburban, with warnings that deaths and injuries were likely as the blaze took hold of hotels and shopping centers in the town of Superior.
The Colorado Sun newspaper reported that a number of people had been treated for burns, with at least six patients at one hospital. Patrick Kilbride, 72, was at work in a hardware store when he heard the order to evacuate, The Denver Post reported. Wind gusts of over 100 miles an hour have been reported in some places, fanning the flames and complicating firefighting efforts by preventing aircraft from taking to the skies.
