Fountains of lava from Hawaii's Kilauea volcano spew up to 300 FEET high, destroying dozens of homes and filling the air with toxic fumes as it shows 'no signs of slowing down'


Lava from Hawaii's Kilauea volcano is being spewed 230 feet into the air - the height of a 23-story building - as the number of homes destroyed climbs to 21. The eruption has forced nearly 2,000 people to evacuate given the sulfur dioxide gas threatening to harm anyone who remained in the area. No injuries have been reported but at least 21 homes were destroyed on Hawaii's Big Island when lava started shooting out of openings in the ground after being triggered by a magnitude 6.9 earthquake last week.
