There was a sense of relief for Cassie Lee when she was able to get to the front of a line at a gas pump on Tuesday. People came out in droves to refuel their cars after a ransomware attack shut down the Colonial Pipeline.

That relief was short-lived, though. Lee’s tank was nearly empty and she only managed to get $3.17 worth of gas before the pump shut off. It was an emotional and desperate moment as she was trying to get from Clayton to Wilmington.
