Malibu Mayor Doug Stewart says the fire wiped out nearly one-third of the city, including historic homes along the Pacific Coast Highway. Stewart says hundreds of homes have been lost and even more damaged, dislocating a large part of the community.

The Palisades Fire destroyed homes in Malibu as it to burned through Los Angeles, California. Footage shows rows of houses on the roadside being razed by the inferno as firefighters converged on the area on January 11.
