T-Mobile Employee Scuffles With Armed Robber – NBC Los Angeles


An determined employee at a T-Mobile store in Orange County tried to stop an armed robbery caught on security camera video by tackling one of the thieves.

The video shows a man attempted to distract the employee Tuesday afternoon as another man walked into the Seal Beach store and clipped the security cable on a cellphone, police said. The employee saw what was happening and confronted the man in a corner of the store.

The two struggled inside the store for a few seconds, during which the robber almost lost his pants, before the scuffle spilled outside onto the sidewalk. Eventually, both men got away.

“After fighting for a several seconds, the suspect was able to get away from the employee and ran through the parking lot,” Seal Beach Police said in a statement. “Both suspects fled the scene in a gold-colored Lexus sedan prior to police arrival.”

A witness told police at least one of the men had a firearm. The weapon was not discharged and no injuries were reported.

Two women were inside the store at the time.

Police released the security camera video in an effort to identify the robbers. Anyone with information is asked to contact detective Ryan Bedard at 562-799-4100 ext. 1113 or [email protected].

Azusa Police Department Ransomware Hack Broader Than 1st Suspected – NBC Los Angeles


The Azusa Police Department is continuing Tuesday to assess the scope of a March ransomware attack that led to the release of information ranging from payroll files to investigative reports referencing confidential informants.

The department announced in a statement released last Thursday that it discovered March 9 that some of its computer systems were inaccessible. An investigation with other law enforcement partners and tech experts found that the department had been locked out as the result of a “sophisticated ransomware attack,” and officials refused to pay any ransom, according to the department.

On April 27, investigators determined that the hackers had stolen information and by May 20, determined that the data may have included Social Security, driver’s license and passport numbers, as well as financial and medical information, according to the police department.

However, the Los Angeles Times reported Monday that the breach was much broader, based on the newspaper’s review of documents posted on a dark web site by ransomeware gang DoppelPaymer.

The Times said the records released online included payroll files, a spreadsheet of gang member contacts, crime scene and booking photos, and investigative reports citing confidential informants.

The index page detailing the police data has been visited more than 11,000 times since April, according to the newspaper.

Azusa police Capt. Christopher Grant told City News Service that investigators — including from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department and FBI — are still working to determine the full scope of the data in the hands of hackers.

Grant said he was limited in what he could say as law enforcement agencies work to bring someone to justice in the case.

“There’s a lot I… can’t discuss,” Grant said.

He said that the attack hadn’t affected the department’s ability to keep Azusa safe.

“Our operations haven’t been hindered at all by this,” Grant said.

The U.S. Treasury Department has warned that hackers often target small-to-medium-sized businesses and local government agencies because they typically have fewer security protections in place.

Cybercriminals typically encrypt data, making…
