Attacks on Arkansas Power Grid

Attacks on Arkansas Power Grid
Perpetrator Sentenced to 15 Years
 
On the afternoon of August 21, 2013, the FBI’s Little Rock Field Office was notified by a local energy provider about a downed 500,000-volt power line near an active railroad track in Cabot, Arkansas. A power outage ensued. Company officials and local law enforcement believed that very early in the morning, someone had climbed a 100-foot tall support tower and intentionally sawed off the shackles that held up the power line, which then fell across the railroad tracks. A short time later, a train struck the line and severed it.

The FBI was called into the matter because sabotaging an energy facility and causing more than $100,000 in damage is a federal crime. According to energy company officials, the damage in this instance was $550,000.

A search of the crime scene and subsequent investigative activity by FBI Little Rock’s Joint Terrorism Task Force—aided by our local law enforcement partners and power company officials—revealed a great deal of information about what had happened.

    9:09...my first response to your post was LOL. My second response is the tell anyone that is listening that the power grid is not going down. That is the least of your worries. Terrorist (hackers by another name) need the grid to conduct all their business. Hacking into the grid is very helpful to terrorists to learn all about or government, military and life in general. The last thing they want is for the grid to go down. Think about it.

    Rather naive aren't we 11:35? Muslims will gladly blow themselves up to kill you, they would not have a problem taking down the grid. Think about it.
