Multiple men accused of hacking into Navy computer systems

Federal prosecutors charged two men in Tulsa on Monday, for conspiring to hack into computers systems of the Navy.

Court records show Nicholas Knight, Virginia, and Daniel Krueger, Illinois, are also accused of hacking into business, university, and government sites.

United States Attorney C. Williams Sr. says the duo were trying to damage a protected computer, obstruct justice, and steal identities.

The Navy discovered the breach, and located both suspects.

Williams says they're being prosecuted in Tulsa because the Navy servers that were hacked are located in the city.

Knight used to be in the Navy.
