The FBI is working with local law enforcement agencies to investigate the “premeditated attacks,” the Washington Post quoted a spokeswoman for the FBI’s Charlotte office as saying. Authorities had previously announced that two substations were targeted on Saturday.
Just like on Monday, schools will now also remain closed on Tuesday. State Governor Roy Cooper thanked everyone who helped — including “law enforcement, the people directing traffic because the lights are out, the health care workers, the emergency responders and others who are doing their best.” It had previously been rumored that the attack was an attempt to thwart a local drag show. Sheriff Ronnie Fields stressed that so far there is no evidence for this.
