YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Two power substations in a North Carolina county were struck by gunfire in what is being investigated as a criminal act, leaving tens of thousands of people without electricity over the weekend.

A spokesman for Duke Energy said at a news conference with local officials Sunday that the damage caused the night before could take days to repair.

Power was out for roughly 35,400 customers Monday morning, down by several thousand from the peak of the outages.

Video from WTVD showed crews working to repair the damaged substations.

In response, officials announced a state of emergency that included a curfew from 9 p.m. Sunday to 5 a.m. Monday.

County schools were also closed Monday.

Moore County Sheriff Ronnie Fields said authorities have not determined a motivation but it appeared gates were breached at both sites.
