A student in the US faces jail after he hacked into his school website
and re-wrote its rules to include orders to watch Beavis And Butthead
and play video games.

The 19-year-old from Michigan could be imprisoned for up to five years
for his practical joke.

He is the first person to be charged under a state law that makes
hacking illegal, The Sun newspaper reports
