British police have arrested a 17-year-old in Oxfordshire on suspicion of hacking, the City of London Police said on Twitter on Friday.
The unnamed teenager was apprehended in Oxfordshire, south-east England, and remains in police custody. The UK’s National Cyber Crime Unit aided in the investigation, the police statement said.\
Police have been investigating the "Lapsus$" hacking group, which ride-hailing company Uber said was responsible for a cyber attack that forced it to shut some internal networks temporarily earlier this month.
The police could not confirm if the arrest was related to that investigation.
In another case, a hacker breached the gaming company Rockstar Games and leaked videos from Grand Theft Auto VI, a highly anticipated title from Take-Two Interactive Software.
