A law enforcement task force has been set up to uncover what caused the fires. The local agencies involved — the Los Angeles fire and police departments and the county Sheriff’s Department, as well as Cal Fire — are considered to be among the most skilled in the country. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives is leading the probe.

Stars, including Paris Hilton, Billy Crystal, and Milo Ventimiglia were mourning the loss of their homes and possessions in LA's devastating fires.

As the fires rage in and around Los Angeles, so much of the attention is focused on the celebrities who've been displaced and lost their homes. Some are amplifying fundraising efforts, but they're also creating perceptions that this tragedy has disproportionately affected the rich and famous.
