8 More Bodies Found In Grim Recovery Effort, Raising Camp Fire Toll To 56
BUTTE COUNTY (CBS SF) – The Butte County Sheriff announced Wednesday evening that eight additional bodies were found during recovery efforts in and around Paradise, bringing the deadly toll from the Camp Fire to 56.
Butte County Sheriff Kory Honea said that the human remains of eight individuals were all found in Paradise with six bodies being discovered inside structures and two being found outdoors.
Honea also noted that search and recovery crews had tentative identification of 47 sets of human remains found in the aftermath of the fire, but that the plan to use rapid DNA testing would speed up the process of determining the identity of those found.
Cal Fire also updated details on the size of the fire, confirming that the Camp Fire had grown to 138,000 acres while remaining at 35 percent containment as of Wednesday night.
A total of 8,650 single-family homes have been destroyed by the camp fire, with the total number of structures lost in the blaze climbing to 10,320.
Earlier Wednesday, authorities in Butte County released the names of more than 100 people still missing since the Camp Fire tore through several communities last week.
"In our ongoing effort to locate people thought to be missing as a result of the Camp Fire, the Butte County Sheriff's Office has created a list of the names of the individuals we are currently looking for," the sheriff's office said in a statement.
Of the 103 people on the list (.pdf), 79 are from the town of Paradise, while another 16 are from Magalia.
