Multiple Evacuations Ordered as Brush Fires Threaten Lahaina and Rancho Tehama

TL;DR Summary
A brush fire burned 10 acres near Lahaina, prompting the evacuation of residents from a neighborhood just miles away from a previous deadly wildfire. Firefighters brought the fire under control using helicopters and hoses, and the fire no longer posed an active threat. The evacuation order covered a small number of homes in the hills above Kaanapali resort hotels, and it remains unclear how many people were affected. The previous wildfire in August resulted in 115 deaths and the destruction of 2,000 structures.
