The Maui Fire Department responded to a brush fire along a shoreline area knowns as “Shipwreck” on Lanai this morning.
Maui firefighters received an alarm at 6:22 a.m., and upon arriving, found about 900 square feet of brush smoldering in the area.

The cause of the fire remains undetermined. No injuries were reported.
