FBI, cooperating with North Carolina's Moore County, seeks cellphone information after attacks on power substations

RALEIGH, N.C. — Federal investigators are seeking cellphone data as part of their search for whoever fired upon a pair of Duke Energy substations in Moore County, leaving the county without power for days.
