Hawaii fires: Lahaina community rallies together as rescue operations continue

As ash settles and search for survivors carries on, residents band together to locate loved ones and help those stranded

The former capital of the Hawaiian Kingdom, Lahaina is a place with a rich landscape, sacred to Kanaka Maoli or Native Hawaiians, one that long has provided a connection to their ancestors.

On Thursday, the town of 9,100 lay in ruins, destroyed by the largest natural disaster to hit Hawaii since Hurricane Iniki in 1992.
