Maui County Officials Urge Families to Provide DNA Samples to Aid in Identification of Wildfire Victims

Over two weeks after devastating wildfires ripped through Maui, Hawaii, officials estimate that between 1,000 and 1,100 people remain unaccounted for. The FBI's Honolulu field office is working to clear people from the list, but only 104 families have submitted DNA samples to aid in the identification process. Emergency leaders are calling on families to provide DNA samples to help identify the remains of those discovered in the ashes.
