Dixie Fire Completely Guts California Town of Greenville
August 5, 2021
A quiet mountain town in California with roots dating back to the Gold Rush has been destroyed by wildfire. “One hour it was here, the next hour the whole town was gone,” storm chaser Brandon Clement said. “The fire was absolutely out of control.” He gave Inside Edition a smoky tour of Main Street today, showing a hotel built in the 1800’s that was totally demolished. The heat of the fire was so strong that it twisted a metal street lamp into a shell of itself.
