The Metropolitan Police arrested a 19 year old living in Essex, England for the DDoS'ing of various sites. The 19 year old is being accused of being LulzSec, but LulzSec is still tweeting after the attack. LulzSec denies that this was them and denied that they attacked SOCA themselves. The 19 year old supposedly attacked SOCA in name of #AntiSec; a rebellion alongside LulzSec.
"Seems the glorious leader of LulzSec got arrested, it's all over now... wait... we're all still here! Which poor bastard did they take down?" - Tweeted by LulzSec
The Metropolitan Police suspects that 19 year old is also involved with the PSN hack, while articles state they still believe they're LulzSec while tweets show otherwise likely. Scotland Yard continued to look further into the situation to see if there were any links to other hacks or any evidence and supposedly found some.
"Earlier today, Scotland Yard said a search of the LulzSec suspect’s address in Essex has “led to the examination of a significant amount of material”." - Develop stated here
They may have of caught someone but it looks like it's not LulzSec. But rather #AntiSec, I suppose we'll see what holds in the future for this case. Perhaps LulzSec is more than one person or someone is in place of their Twitter for the time being and that is LulzSec. Who knows, it could be a variety of things, but time will tell. For now patience is a virtue.
