Israeli teenager charged with US police system hacking

Israeli police have arrested a 19-year-old teenager on charges of hacking into a police computer system in Pennsylvania.

Israeli media reports say that the youth, which was arrested earlier

this month, claimed he had no idea what he was doing, or that he had destroyed any computer data.
