Stayathome order imposed

Gov. Roy Cooper unveiled a modified stayathome order on Tuesday that requires the state’s roughly 10.5 million residents to remain off the streets between 10 p. m. and 5 a. m. The executive order mandates the closure of bars, restaurants, entertainment venues and personal care businesses by 10 p. m. Grocery chains and some retailers that sell groceries as well as travel to and from work and to get gas, medical care or social services will be allowed within the sevenhour window.
