The number of people missing following devastating Maui wildfires has dropped to 66
The Aug. 8 firestarted in the hills abovethe historic oceanfront town. Within hours it spread through single-family homes and apartment buildings, quaint city streets, art galleries and restaurants, destroying more than 2,000 structures. Dozens of people fled to the ocean seeking refuge from the flames. The blaze is estimated to have caused $5.5 billion in damage.
The new tally of 66 people still missing represents a significant drop from a week earlier, when authorities said 385 remained unaccounted for.
So far, Maui police have released the names of 55 of the dead. Of those, 22 were in their 70s, with another 13 in their 60s. There wasone listed victim under the age of 10.
With about half the deceased still unidentified, Green said he expected there to be significant overlap between the names on the missing list and remains that have already been recovered. Therefore, he said, he did not expect the death toll to rise considerably.

(so 650 missing children has dropped to a dozen or two and only 1 child dead?)
another dasting fact is in the pre-published F&F book (now blackholed) listed the ENTIRE death toll as 6 in Maui.
what kind of math is this?
