(May 17, 2008)--Five young computer hackers were under arrest Saturday in Spain, accused of disabling government websites around the world.
Two of the hackers are just 16-years-old, and the oldest of the five is only 20.
The group is said to have hacked into sites run by government agencies in the U.S., Latin America, and Asia.
Spanish police aren’t saying exactly which sites were targeted.
The arrests came in four different cities.
Police say the hackers are responsible for attacking 21,000 Web pages over the past two years.
