Pipeline shut down by cyber-gang
A growing number of petrol stations on the United States' East Coast have no fuel to sell, after a ransomware attack.
Hackers from the group 'DarkSide' have shut down a pipeline, which accounts for almost half of the supply in the region.
The Cyber-gang claims it didn't intend to cause havoc for consumers.
The group says it simply wants a ransom payment to restore the pipeline.
Work is ongoing to manually get the petrol flowing again.
The FBI has begun an investigation into the hack.
