Pittsford, N.Y. - Sometime around the beginning of the month, cyber
hackers took $139,000 from the Town of Pittsford's payroll account.
Town Supervisor Bill Carpenter says they didn't know money was missing
right away because the theft happened during pay periods.

The FBI is investigating the theft and how the town bank account was targeted.
