At least 96 people have died in devastating wildfires that have destroyed the historic town of Maui in Hawaii, making it the most deadly wildfire in US history.
On Maui’s west coast, the town of Lahaina is the epicentre of these wild fires – the deadliest in America for well over a century.
Lahaina was Hawaii’s ancient royal capital. A place of deep cultural and historical significance in Pacific Island culture.
It is now in ruins; a paradise lost.
Our ITV News team arrived to what is currently an active investigation zone, with streets closed off by police, and the US National Guard securing the perimeter.
