A week of disorder in Cleveland, as City Hall remains closed after cyber threat

CLEVELAND (AP) — Cleveland’s City Hall remained closed to the public Friday, as officials in Ohio’s second-largest city continued to grapple with the effects of a cyber threat. City operations have been hampered all week by the threat first detected Sunday. Its nature, cause and extent haven’t been divulged. State and federal authorities are investigating. After shutting down most systems and closing City Hall and a second government location to residents and employees early in the week, Democratic Mayor Justin Bibb brought employees back Wednesday. But a host of problems ensued, so he ordered City Hall closed again through week’s end.
