The Cockrell Hill Police Department lost video evidence and a cache of digital documents after hackers invaded the department’s computer system last month. Stephen Barlag, Cockrell Hill's police chief, said the incident was not the work of hackers, but acknowledged that the incident included a computer-generated ransom demand. "This was not a hacking incident," Barlag said in a news release Wednesday evening. "No files or confidential information was breached or obtained by any outside parties."
