CARTHAGE, N.C. — Virtually all power has been restored in central North Carolina where gunfire led to massive power outages, officials said WednesdayBy 4 p.m. EST there were only 1,200 homes and businesses in Moore County without power, which was just a fraction of those who had been plunged into darkness, Duke Energy spokesman Jeff Brooks told reporters.

A $75,000 reward was posted, with $25,000 each from Gov. Cooper's office, Moore County and Duke Energy, officials said Wednesday.Law enforcement officials on Wednesday were tight-lipped about what their probe has unearthed so far, saying that didn't want to jeopardize the ongoing investigation. “Whoever the perpetrator is — I can assure you, I hope they turn the power off in the cell they put you in,” Moore County Board of Commissioners Chairman Nick Picerno said Tuesday.The power started going out in Moore County shortly after 7 p.m. Saturday, officials said, and investigators found the equipment had been struck by gunfire.

There was relief for around 10,000 customers who had their power restored by Tuesday, utility company Duke Energy said, though around 35,000 customers remained without electricity.it expected to have all customers restored just before midnight Thursday.

Today Iran executed MohsenShekari, 23, a protester in Tehran. The entire process took 70 days. No Justice. No due process. No proper defense. Nothing! An entirely political execution to serve a political purpose. Criminals. مهسا_امینی

Breaking: 2nd amendment rights were not violated during the shooting of this electrical stuff. Republicans should be proud!

Democrats did it

Wow you're in collusion with each other. You need to be removed from Twitter.

The point here is that this is domestic terrorism and all law-enforcement including the FBI needs to get going and find out who did this. Then they must make sure they are prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

What’s insane is this isn’t the only state attacked

Was it Climate terrorists?

Now, do abortion rights.
