Where things stand on North Carolina power outages, investigations

RALEIGH, N.C. — Tens of thousands of Moore County residents are entering their third full day without power after two Duke Energy electrical substations in the county were intentionally damaged Saturday evening.

The outages were first reported Saturday around 7 p.m. and spread through central and southern Moore County, a roughly 706-square-mile county in North Carolina’s Sandhills region that is home to about 99,000 people.

Businesses, critical and health care resources, schools and more throughout the county are impacted by the outages.
