Incident date

Brown City officials said a cyberattack changed the IP address of Well No. 3 and stopped the municipal well from producing water for several hours before staff restored it. No actor, ransomware or data theft is established, but the cellular control-system change closely matches the late-July 2026 water-utility campaign.
