MALIBU, Calif.—Two people were found dead and scores of houses from the celebrity mansions of Malibu to the mobile homes of seniors in the suburbs burned in a pair of wildfires that stretched across more than 100 square miles of Southern California, authorities said on Nov. 10.
The two bodies were found in a sparsely populated stretch of Mulholland Highway in Malibu, but Los Angeles County sheriff’s Chief John Benedict offered no further details, saying detectives are investigating. It brings to 11 the number of people who have now died in fires in the past few days, with nine already killed in a Northern California wildfire.
