Around 32 houses were destroyed in Ringgold, a ranching town of about 250 people. Mr. Castillo provided this information about this photo: Reyes Morales, de 48 años de edadbusca algunas de sus pertenencias de entre los escombros de lo que quedó de su vivienda destruida por el fuego que arrasó la localidad de Ringgold, a 180 Km al norte de Dallas (Texas). Morales perdió todos sus bienes materiales y espera la ayuda del gobierno para reconstruir su casa y su vida.
