Hackers Deface Canadian Police Website

Charlene Close writes on 680News.com:

The Durham Regional Police service website was taken off-line late Thursday night after a hacker attacked the homepage.

Technicians spent much of Friday trying to correct the problem and trace the source.

Around 10 p.m. Thursday, someone broke into the website administration site and posted a message that read "defaced by King Hack Team."

Police said the culprit was not able to access any sensitive information.
