Mick Fleetwood has confirmed that his restaurant, Fleetwood’s on Front Street, in Hawaii has been destroyed by the ongoing deadly wildfires in Maui. The 76-year-old co-founder of Fleetwood Mac shared the news on social media, expressing his devastation at the loss. The fires have ravaged the historic town of Lahaina on the island, resulting in the deaths of at least 67 people.

The official Instagram account of the restaurant also shared a post, thanking everyone for their thoughts and prayers and stating that they do not have enough information about the situation yet.
The wildfires began on Tuesday and have worsened throughout the week due to a faraway hurricane that fueled the flames and caused rapid spreading. Governor Josh Green of Hawaii described the destruction in Lahaina as shocking, comparing it to the impact of a bomb. In response, President Joe Biden declared a major disaster and ordered Federal aid to assist in the local recovery efforts.
