Shelbyville Police Department Listed by Interlock Ransomware Group

On November 5, 2025, the Shelbyville Police Department appeared on the leak site of the interlock ransomware group after attackers exfiltrated internal files during a ransomware incident. The breach exposed confidential law-enforcement data, including access to the department’s camera systems, archived videos, crime footage, and devices that record audio or video. Residents whose information appears in police records now face heightened risk of identity theft and doxxing.

What Public Reporting Shows

Available reporting describes a ransomware attack in which interlock claims to have obtained a large volume of the department’s internal files. The data includes archived videos and crime footage stored in departmental databases. Public reporting indicates the attackers also gained access to the department’s camera systems and any connected devices capable of recording audio or video. The exact number of individuals whose records were taken remains unknown, but police departments routinely hold sensitive information on local residents, victims, witnesses, suspects, and employees.

November 5, 2025 marks the date the Shelbyville Police Department was listed on the interlock leak site. The group has not publicly stated a specific extortion deadline in the available summaries, yet the presence of the listing itself signals that negotiations either failed or were never pursued.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

When a police department’s camera feeds, video archives, and internal databases are compromised, the ripple effects reach far beyond the building. Your name, address, driver’s license number, date of birth, incident reports, or witness statements may now sit in files outside secure government systems. That information can be sold, traded, or used to build profiles for identity theft, fraud, or harassment.
