Cameron Peak Fire In Colo. Engulfs More Than 150K Acres

OAN reports,
The Cameron Peak Fire has become the largest fire in Colorado state history. According to reports, the blaze has consumed over 164,000 acres, along with at least 95 buildings and 33 homes so far. Authorities have ordered mass evacuations as the fire continues to burn through thousands of acres a day. The fire burned 30,000 acres in the 24-hour period between Wednesday and Thursday morning, closing down highways as it pushed its way toward Fort Collins. The flames have now spread into northern Rocky Mountain National Park, which is just a few miles away from Colorado State University’s Mountain Campus.
