In addition to the FBI, the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation has joined the investigation, officials said. The estimated cost of the substation damage is in the millions, the sheriff said Sunday. The damage has been significant and rerouting power isn’t an option, said Jeff Brooks, principal communications manager for Duke Energy. “We have a six-month-old baby in the house. We’re out of heat. We are trying to get heat for her,” Carthage resident Chris Thompson told WRAL. Chilly temperatures, with lows in the 30s, were expected in the area overnight Sunday with highs in the 50s and a chance of rain expected Monday, according to the [URL='https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Southern+Pines&state=NC&site=RAH&textField1=35.1835&textField2=-79.4022&e=0#.Y413_XbMKUk']National Weather Service[/URL]. With streets in the dark, the area has seen increased emergency calls and vehicle accidents are being reported because traffic lights are out, Cameron told CNN. [/QUOTE]
