Threat-actor claim — not a regulatory filing

This row is a claim by the ransomware group DragonForce on its public extortion blog. It has not been validated by the victim or any regulator. Treat attribution and counts as the threat actor's assertion until a regulatory filing or victim disclosure corroborates them.

Post text · scraped from the leak site

Barr Trucking was formed in 1981 by William Mark Barr and his Father William DeWitt Barr in Pinckneyville, IL. At the time, Barr Trucking consisted of two water delivery trucks and one dump truck utilized to deliver residential rock. In 1983 Mark acquired his father’s share of the company with visions of expanding into new markets. The next year Mark purchased the company’s first semi, a 1975 R Model Mack. With an expanding fleet and company growth, a new facility was in order. In 1989, Barr Trucking purchased a large work shop and storage yard west of Pinckneyville, IL where the company operates today.
