The Boston Police have (or should I say had), a very useful website called "BPDNEWS.COM" that fell victim today to some tom-foolery.

If you try to reach the site now, it asks for a password or will just error out. They must have taken it off-line.

If you were one of the lucky ones who accessed the site after the hack but before the take-down, you would have found a music video by KRS-ONE, a hip hop artist whose songs are not so flattering of the police.

Here are the local news stories about the hack: Channel 5 and Boston Herald.

Just when you think the whole "Occupy Boston" thing was over... they bring you back in. I used to visit that site regularly, it's pretty useful. I don't know if there was any data worth stealing attached to it, and for the sake of the BPD, I hope not.
