A Belgian 17-year-old had some fun boasting that he’d hacked into the federal police Web site but the tables were turned when the police announced he’d been arrested within 24 hours of the hack. After succeeding in temporarily shutting down the police site, he left “a mocking online note which helped identify him,” Agence France Press reports. The boy was picked up after a search of his home in a Brussels suburb, then released the same evening. He’ll “later be summoned to appear in a minors court.”
