At least seven people have lost their lives, and thousands of structures have been damaged or destroyed as fierce wildfires continue to rage across the Los Angeles area. In Altadena, aerial footage captures the extensive devastation left in the wake of the wildfires.
Many of the towering fires ignited on January 7, fueled by powerful Santa Ana winds sweeping through the region. The fast-moving flames have torn through homes and businesses, forcing nearly 180,000 residents to flee smoke-filled canyons.
Residents describe scenes of chaos as they evacuated their neighborhoods. \
