Port Hills on fire

FIRE On Port Hills
... A wildland fire burning in ...Fire, Flame, Wood, Burn, Wood ...

In March, 2017, two fires spread across the Port hills. one is believed to have started by an Electrical problem between some wires.

People felt devastated and some houses were destroyed. Lots of people were coughing. They were worried about their homes, pets and families. The firefighters used ponds, pools, buckets and hoses to put the fire out. The victims of the fire were  people who lost houses, firefighters, David Askin a pilot who died in the fires, christchurch people, farmers, animals and pets.There was a lot of smoke everywhere. people tried to put out the fire but it was hopeless. four hundred and fifty people evacuated during the fire.I felt sorry for the people who evacuated during the fire, but right now they are rebuilding their lives and being with their families and friends.
