GTA 6 HACKER SUSPECT MAY HAVE BEEN ARRESTED
By NATHAN SIMMONS
The hacker behind the massive "Grand Theft Auto 6" leak from earlier this week may have finally been found. Shortly after it was revealed that Uber — a company that also fell victim to the hacks — was cooperating with the FBI to bring in the suspected leakers, it was reported that the authorities may have already found their man.
On the morning of Sept. 23, the BBC reported that a 17-year-old suspect had been brought in for questioning the night before. Following the inquiry, the teen was formally arrested, but the BBC was not able to go into detail concerning the exact crimes involved, although they later revealed it to be hacking.
Journalist Matthew Keys, who has been tracking the story since it broke this morning on Twitter, reported, "Arrest of 17-year-old by police in the United Kingdom over hack of Rockstar and possibly Uber was done in concert with an investigation conducted by the FBI, according to a source with knowledge of the matter."
