The bombshell security breach on Monday has left Los Angeles police and the FBI struggling with how to respond - after the leaders of both agencies were also targeted.

Ashton Kutcher, Paris Hilton, Donald Trump and Attorney-General Eric Holder also had their personal details made public in the mass dump of 'secret files'. Read the rest here Daily Mail
