New York: A wildfire in Boulder County, Colorado, has burned 6,000 acres. The fire engulfed a thousand houses. Three people are missing. They were at home at the time of the accident.
Seven people were burnt. Tens of thousands of families have been evacuated from the area. The fire broke out Thursday morning on the outskirts of north Denver. Colorado, which has been experiencing severe drought for several years, was hit by dry weather and strong winds that caused the fire to spread quickly.

Authorities have announced an investigation into the incident. U.S. President Joe Biden has declared the accident a disaster.
