LOS ANGELES (AP) — Federal agents say they have arrested an Arizona man accused of hacking into the computers of Sony Pictures Entertainment.
FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller says 23-year-old Cody Kretsinger was arrested Thursday and was expected to make a court appearance later in the day in Phoenix.
An indictment unsealed Thursday in Los Angeles charges Kretsinger with one count each of conspiracy and unauthorized impairment of a protected computer.
Sony Pictures computers were compromised earlier this year by a group known as Lulz Security, whose members anonymously claimed responsibility.
