MORGANTON, N.C. — Morganton officials are warning people about a man posing as a city worker in an attempt to get into apartments.
Officials said the man knocked on several doors at Woodbridge Apartments after business hours Tuesday night.
He told residents he was doing an underground survey for the electric department and needed to go inside their homes.
Morganton's city manager said city workers typically don't knock on doors after hours unless it's an emergency and they would always wear a city uniform, drive a city vehicle and identify themselves.
