LONDON (AP) - The group known as Anonymous says it has hacked some 70 law enforcement websites across the southern and central United States in retaliation for the arrests of its sympathizers in the U.S. and Britain.

The hacking group also claims to have stolen 10 gigabytes of data, including emails, credit card details, and other information from local law enforcement bodies.

Anonymous' claims couldn't all be immediately verified, but a review of the sites it claims to have targeted - mainly sheriffs' offices in states such as Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, Missouri, and Mississippi - showed that most were unavailable or had been wiped clean of content.

Half a dozen calls to various sheriff's offices across the country went unanswered or weren't returned early Saturday.
