WASHINGTON ― President Joe Biden said Wednesday the Los Angeles home of his son Hunter Biden is in the danger zone of the area's devastating wildfires but may have been spared after initially fearing it was destroyed.

The status of the home, where Hunter Biden lives with his wife, Melissa Cohen Biden, remains unclear, the president said.

Biden called the wildfires caused by strong Santa Ana winds "astounding" after receiving a briefing from local fire department officials at a Santa Monica, California, fire station.

"There's only one piece of good news. My son lives out here. They got a notification yesterday that their home was probably burned to the ground. Today, it appears it may still be standing. They're not sure," Biden said.
