OFFICERS from the Metropolitan Police's E-Crime Unit in London arrested a 16-year-old boy in South London today, the latest arrest in an international sting operation targeting the notorious hacker groups Anonymous and LulzSec.
A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police told FoxNews.com that one of the hackers remains in custody in a Central London police station on suspicion of breaching the Computer Misuse Act - and that the teen was believed to be linked to the LulzSec hacker group and the larger group of "hacktivists" that go by the collective handle "Anonymous".
US law enforcement officials confirmed to FoxNews.com that the arrest of the juvenile hacker, who goes by the online user name Tflow, was the latest in a sweeping sting of arrests today, in which 16 suspected hackers were arrested in states across the country, as FoxNews.com first reported.
