UPDATE: Per Sheriff Joe Pelle, #MarshallFire up to 1,600 acres. Estimate is 580 homes lost or damaged. One officer injured.
Of those 580, Pelle said 370 homes in east Superior, 210 in the Olde Town area. Target complex and Element Hotel also burned. #MarshallFire
Pelle said no missing people or deaths reported at this time, but given speed and scope of fire, "It wouldn't surprise us if we did find a casualty." #MarshallFire
Pelle said bottom line, they won't be able to stop #MarshallFire until the winds die down, main focus now is getting people out.
"This is the kind of fire you can't fight off."
Polis: "This fire is not so much a question of resources... This fire is frankly a force of nature."
