Vindy looking for local residents linked to Calif. fires

An explosive chain of Southern California wildfires has triggered the largest evacuation in state history, with hundreds of thousands of people fleeing their homes as weary firefighters struggle to slow the relentless infernos that have consumed more than 267,000 acres since last weekend.

Do you have family there? Know of any transplanted Valley residents who have lost their home, or been told to quickly pack and flee?

We’d like to reach them and get their story. Email us at news@vindy.com with a name, a number and a bit of background.
