California Fires Spread Rapidly, Killing Seventh Victim

A car passes through flames on Highway 299 as the Carr Fire burns through Shasta, California, on July 26. Fueled by high temperatures, wind and low humidity, the blaze has destroyed multiple structures and killed seven people.

There are 18 fires blazing in California, and officials say this year the wildfires have spread faster and burned more land earlier in the fire season than usual.
