Kilauea’s lava erupts and injures one person

Hawaii lava finally reaches the Pacific and acid from Kilauea’s lava, called “Laze” crossed the Hawaii highways to reach the ocean. Major routes are blocked off by lava streams as the first serious causality was reported during fresh eruptions, as a man sitting on a balcony at his home was hit on the shin by the molten rock .

Lava spatters can weigh “as much a refrigerator” according to a spokeswoman for the county Mayor said. On Saturday, a key coastal road used as the main escape route for residents on south-eastern corner of Big Island was in danger of being cut off, which could hamper evacuations.
