It’s a great idea when local governments go to war against the suppliers of electricity. Always comes to an amusing end.

I wonder if this is that field… no power lines down but a melted car sitting in the middle of unburnt gravel area… crazy stuff, does a grass fire get hot enough to melt glass and aluminum??? Takes all night in a camp fire to melt an aluminum can but the glass bottles are usually still there in the morning.

Hawaiian Electric said the power had been off for hours when the crew witnessed that second fire in the field

They were Magic Wires... Arlen Spector

Question for HELCO; Why would MPD close roads for downed powerlines if the powerlines were de-energized?....

Why is the ATF involved in the investigation?

Well the local that survived should be able to validate that quickly... did then have no power before the fires? If they had no power for four hours before the main fire started.. that back up the power company story.. if the had power then to power company is full of s-it

But the two fires part I’ve heard several times now

There was a fire that morning that got put out... it was a second fire later in the day that was the big one
