According to Develop Online, three suspected hackers have been arrested in Spain in connection with the PlayStation Network break-in. Spanish police have suggested that the three are indeed connected to Anonymous. The three are alleged to have launched the attacks from an apartment in the northern port city of Gijon. The server in question may have also been used in similar attacks on two Spanish banks, an Italian energy company, and various government websites in Spain, Egypt, Algeria, Libya, Iran, Chile, Colombia and New Zealand.

Anonymous has publicly denied responsibility for the data breach.
