(CNN) -- A wildfire ripped through a Chilean city on Sunday after killing at least four people and consuming more than 500 homes, officials said.
At least one more person has been injured in the flames that have swept over at least 660 acres, said Chile's National Emergency Office (ONEMI).
Strong winds fanned the flames into the city of Valparaiso on the Pacific coast, ONEMI said. A Google Earth map of the fires showed some of them burning roughly two miles away from the adjacent city of Vina del Mar.
More than 500 firefighters from seven provinces, some in helicopters, battled the fire, an official said. But the wind hampered their efforts to create firebreaks.
"It's been one of the worst fires in history," said Vina del Mar fire superintendent, Fernando Reseio, who has been a firefighter for 30 years.
Many rows of flames could be seen blazing through houses in the urban area located about 50 miles from the capital Santiago.

This is just awful.....first the EQ and now this! I am just thankful that your people are so well organised when it comes to events like this Chand, otherwise the loss of life would be so much worse. I have seen it reported that the fire was started by an explosion, now whether that was a deliberate act I don't know.
