Lincoln County authorities said Monday that residents have experienced more than their fair share of problems since the big storm hit Friday night.
Authorities said that they've been responding to a higher than usual number of breaking and entering calls. In particular, burglaries have been reported at homes with no power. It's become such a concern that police and sheriff's deputies have increased patrols in the area.
