Raleigh, N.C. — (Aug.22) A Progress Energy employee's kidnapping and death prompted Raleigh leaders to establish tighter security measures for parking lots and garages in downtown.

Cynthia Moreland, 48, was abducted from a parking garage beneath Progress Energy's headquarters on Aug. 22, police said. Her body was found behind an abandoned Harnett County barn on Sept. 1.

A week later, police charged Antonio Chance, 29, with kidnapping and murder in connection with Moreland's disappearance and death. Prosecutors said they plan to seek the death penalty.
