CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) - Governor Roy Cooper has extended North Carolina’s statewide curfew on the sale of alcohol at restaurants in response to the cornavirus pandemic.
The curfew, stated in Executive Order 153, banned restaurants from selling alcoholic drinks between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m., and kept bars across the state closed. It went into effect on Friday, July 31, and was set to expire on Aug. 31.
Just hours before the curfew was set to expire, Gov. Cooper announced it would be extended through Oct. 2.
