NORTHERN CALIFORNIA – Authorities are continuing to attempt to locate a growing number of individuals listed as missing in the Camp fire area.

The fire began on the morning of Nov. 8 and has since destroyed much of the town of Paradise in Butte County.

As of Sunday night, 77 deaths had been attributed to the fire, which also has destroyed 10,364 single-family residents and thousands more other structures.

The latest list of missing, released by the Butte County Sheriff’s Office on Saturday night, includes approximately 1,202 individuals. The list can be seen below.

Butte County Sheriff Kory Honea said his staff – with the assistance of allied agencies – continues to work through the list to try locate those reported as missing.

Late last week, he said more than 300 people who had been reported missing were removed from the list thanks to the efforts of the missing persons unit.

With Camp fire survivors now being scattered across the state and even outside of California, some of them may be on the list and not know it.

If you see anyone on the list who is no longer missing please contact the Butte County Sheriff’s Office so their name can be removed.

Staff working the Missing Persons Task Force can be reached at 530-538-6570, 530-538-7544 and 530-538-7671.
