Associated Press photojournalist Rick Bowmer, based in Salt Lake City, was dispatched to Maui, Hawaii, midday Wednesday to cover the devastating fire in Lahaina that killed at least 67 people Friday, according to the AP. Thursday he captured some of the first comprehensive aerial photos of the massive destruction to the Hawaiian tourist town.
