PITTSBURGH (AP) — A western Pennsylvania credit union is suing Target Corp. for the cost of reissuing debit cards to about 75 customers whose account information was compromised by computer hackers who stole 40 million credit and debit card numbers from the retailer’s customers.

The Pennsylvania credit union is located about 45 miles northwest of Pittsburgh.
