Maui's number of people not accounted for after fires rises back above 1,000
"I know it is confusing, because the numbers do change," FBI Special Agent in Charge Steven Merrill said on Tuesday.
MAUI, Hawaii — The number of people on the unaccounted for list from the Maui fires now has "between 1,000 and 1,100" names on it, FBI Special Agent in Charge Steven Merrill said at a news conference Tuesday.
That's more than Maui County Mayor Richard Bissen , when he said 850 names were on the list. In the latest update, police also cautioned that it's likely some people's fates might never be known.
