A dangerous wildfire broke in Colorado and blackened the area, burning everything in its way on Thursday.
The suburban area at the base of the Rocky Mountains fumed a wildfire and charred the populated neighbourhood causing heavy casualties. Many became homeless due to the wildfire and tore down seeing the snow-covered ashes of their abode. The snow hovered over the area thereafter freezing the temperatures making things worst for the affected people.
The Officials investigation of the Colorado fire
Speaking on the tragedy on Saturday, Boulder County Sheriff Joe Pelle also said that investigators are still trying to find the cause of the wind-whipped blaze that erupted Thursday and scorched entire neighbourhoods in the area located between Denver and Boulder.
The Sheriff continued saying utility officials found no downed power lines around where the fire broke out. Although, the authorities were pursuing a number of tips and had executed a search warrant at “one particular location” but no details were provided.
But one sheriff’s office confirmed that one property was under investigation in Boulder County’s Marshall Mesa area, a region of open grassland about 2 miles west of the hard-hit town of Superior.
Severe damages ensued from the Colorado fire
At least 991 homes and other buildings were destroyed, as explained by the officials, 553 in Louisville, 332 in Superior and 106 in unincorporated parts of the county further cautioning that the tally was not final.
In the wildfire that erupted seven people were injured and burned 9.4 square miles area which was around Louisville and Superior, neighbouring towns about 20 miles along with northwest of Denver affecting 34,000 combined population of the area.
The debris has made the search for the missing 3 people much more complicated for the cadaver teams to search in the Superior area and in unincorporated Boulder County. Then after the snow has added to the struggle of the residents and people who have become homeless.
