A Florida man has been arrested after allegedly using coronavirus relief funds to buy a Lamborghini sports car and other luxury items. 
David T. Hines, 29, from Miami, allegedly obtained $4 million in Covid-19 relief funds after applying for Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans for small businesses. 
He claimed that he had hundreds of employees across four companies - Unified Relocation Solutions, Promaster Movers, Cash-in Holdings LLC and We pack Moving LLC - and that he needed $13million to keep paying them. 
Hines went online and asked for several loans - three were approved. 
In reality, prosecutors say he had 12 employees and that his business 'inflows and outflows' were around $200,000 a month. 
He is accused of spending some of the money he received on stays at luxury hotels in Miami along with the car, and on clothes from Saks. The criminal complaint against him also claims he spent money on dating websites.    
It is unclear if the Lamborghini that was seized was his only one; in 2018, he called police claiming his then girlfriend had stolen a Lamborghini that belonged to him. They both ended up being arrested for battery. 
According to the criminal complaint, Hines claimed he needed $4million a month to pay employees.

Hines claimed on the applications to have dozens of employees across his four businesses. 
In fact, his 'payroll' amounted to around 12 people and he paid them on Venmo or Zelle. 
The largest payment noted in the complaint is for $3,000. 
Before the payments, Hines had just 30 cents in one of his business accounts and another was more than $31,000 overdrawn.

  The Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) has countered the BBC documentary on the late Temitope Babatunde Joshua, known as TB Joshua, founder of SCOAN. SCOAN described the documentary against TB Joshua as unfounded, and that the characters interviewed in the report were unknown to the church. The church, in a statement signed by its Public Affairs Director, Mr Dare Adejumo, said the statement was aimed at disabusing public minds from the report. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the BBC released a highly controversial and damning documentary on the late TB Joshua on Monday, accusing him of various crimes, including rape, against some members. SCOAN said, “BBC World Services investigative unit, code-named Africa Eye, came out this week with weird and strange episodes of atrocities against the late founder of SCOAN.” It said that to investigate and publish or broadcast reports was a central kernel of journalism, but to do so outside the ethics and fundamental principles

  The NBA has suspended former San Antonio Spurs guard  Joshua Primo   for four games   ... after it says it found he exposed his private parts to multiple women. The league announced the ban on Friday morning ... saying an investigation into the free agent revealed he had "engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior." NBA officials called his actions "conduct detrimental to the league." They did, however, note that they "did not find evidence that he engaged in any sexual or other misconduct apart from these brief exposures." "Primo maintains that his conduct was not intentional," the league said. Dr. Hillary Cauthen , Primo's former therapist, was the first to  bring the allegations  against Primo to light after she claimed last fall that he exposed himself to her on nine separate occasions. Dr. Cauthen's attorney,  Tony Buzbee , alleged the Spurs were aware of Primo's actions, but didn't take action. Cauthen went on to file

 Sky Sports were left red-faced after an on-screen graphic mistakenly introduced Chelsea defender Axel Disasi as Noni Madueke on Tuesday night. The pair were both the scoresheet as the Blues thrashed Middlesbrough 6-1 at Stamford Bridge in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final to boo their place at Wembley. But when Disasi spoke to Sky Sports after the game, an on-screen graphic introduced him as Madueke instead. Madueke is four years younger than his Chelsea teammate, plays in a different role and is English, while Disasi is French. Viewers immediately spotted the mistake and took to social media to flag up the glaring error.  Sky Sports with a huge mistake as that is Axel Disasi, not Noni Madueke,' another added, while a third described the gaffe as a 'howler'. A fourth commented: 'Sky sports calling Disasi Madueke. They’ve done it again.' Disasi scored Chelsea's third goal in the 6-1 rout, converting Raheem Sterling's cross at the far post after th
