A juvenile suspected of being involved in cyberattacks against multiple Las Vegas casinos was arrested last week, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department announced. The attacks were attributed to the infamous hacking group Scattered Spider, and the FBI, which took over the investigation, identified a teenage male as a suspect. The unnamed teenager, the Las Vegas police say, surrendered to the Clark County Juvenile Detention Center on September 17, and was booked on identity theft, extortion, and computer intrusion charges.
