Workers in Union City were struggling with a virus that has infected their computer systems and crippled most city-owned laptops and desktops, including many used by the police department.
“An area that’s been hit for police is not only the mobile desktop computers but also the computers located in our building that help officers provide reports,” said Lauren Sugayan, a city spokesperson.

Sugayan says the computer virus was first discovered Saturday morning.
The city has called in the FBI and cyber-security experts from the state to help with their investigation.
Sugayan said they are still trying to understand the exact nature of the virus and could not definitively rule out the possibility that it was a ransomware attack. She did, however, add that no specific demands had yet been made.
