Former Toyota Worker Facing Federal Charge

The FBI has filed a federal criminal complaint against Ibrahimshah Shahulhameed of Georgetown, a fired Toyota Motor Manufacturing computer programmer accused of accessing Toyota's computer system by illegally logging into the www.toyotasupplier.com site and reconfiguring the programs, issuing commands for them to run slowly or shut down completely. Tuesday in U.S. District Court, Toyota dismissed a civil action against Shahulhameed over alleged sabotage.
