A week of disorder in Cleveland, as City Hall remains closed after ransomware attack

CLEVELAND (AP) — Cleveland’s City Hall will remained closed to the public through at least Monday, as officials in Ohio’s second-largest city continued to grapple with the effects of a ransomware attack. City operations have been hampered all week by the threat first detected Sunday. State and federal authorities are investigating.

But a host of problems ensued, so he ordered City Hall closed again through week’s end.
