Dixie fire levels California community as residents flee blaze

A huge fire has torn through a northern California town, hours after officials urged residents to flee the powerful blaze.

Downtown Greenville, a small community in the north of the state, was engulfed by flames after strong winds whipped the natural disaster towards the community.

"I'd say the majority of downtown Greenville is completely destroyed," tweeted wildfire photographer Stuart Palley, sharing images of the devastation.

"My heart is broken for this beautiful little town."
