Death Toll Climbs in Tennessee Wildfires

Seven people have now been confirmed dead as the wildfires continue to consume the city of Gatlinburg in Tennessee.

Officials say more than 700 homes and businesses have been destroyed and have left more than 14,000 people without a place to go.

Heavy rain has now hit the area, causing mudslides and rockslides as firefighters try to go back to take care of hotspots.

Fire officials say the fire that started the inferno appears to be man-made.
