Residents face harrowing escape from 'unprecedented' western wildfires

Wildfires are sweeping across more of the West Coast, with no relief in sight. Dozens of fires have wiped out small towns and destroyed hundreds of homes in Oregon, Washington state and Northern California. At least eight people have been killed. Special correspondent Cat Wise reports, and Judy Woodruff talks to Cat and Kevin Cameron, a county commissioner for Marion County, Oregon.
