Law enforcement officials say they've found no evidence linking recent gunshots near a Duke Energy facility in South Carolina to earlier gunfire at North Carolina electric substations
RIDGEWAY, S.C. — — Law enforcement officials say they have found no evidence linking gunshots near a Duke Energy facility in South Carolina to earlier gunfire at North Carolina electric substations that cost thousands of customers their power, though multiple state and federal agencies continue to investigate.
“We currently have no evidence leading us to believe this incident involves any type of attack on the Duke Energy Hydro Station," Boan said in the post."The shooting appears to be a random act and the only connection between the shooting and the hydro station is their proximity.” Duke Energy completed repairs Wednesday on electric substation equipment that was damaged in the North Carolina shootings, knocking out power to more than 45,000 customers. Officials said power was restored to the county Wednesday evening, though the effects of the outage were still being felt Thursday in Moore County, where schools remained closed.
Electric utilities in the Northwest U.S. have also reported attacks on the electrical grid in recent weeks.
