9 suspects arrested after $7M in stolen cargo seized in Southern California bust
Nine suspects were arrested after authorities in Southern California seized approximately $7 million in stolen cargo from various retailers, along with about $1 million in cash, officials said.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said the suspects were taken into custody as detectives served 13 search warrants at locations between December and February in Los Angeles, Riverside and San Bernardino counties.
The warrants were served as part of an ongoing multi-agency investigation into organized crime and cargo theft, the department said in a social media post.
The recovered cargo included televisions, kitchen appliances, printers, soundbars, Ring cameras, air conditioning units, tools, pool equipment, golf carts, ATVs, plush toys, clothing, shoes, energy drinks, liquor and cosmetics, authorities said.
A total of 36 companies were targeted, including JB Hunt, Amazon, Sony, LG, T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, Dollar General, Family Dollar, Costco, Wolff Shoes, Monster Energy and Disney.
The suspects are facing charges including grand theft cargo, money laundering and receiving stolen property, according to authorities.
Anyone with additional information regarding cargo theft is urged to contact the Organized Retail Crimes Task Force, which was established by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department in 2023.
The sheriff's department's post did not identify the suspects.
World Cup teams finalize US base camps as host cities prepare for global crowds
With the 2026 FIFA World Cup just three months away, cities across the United States are racing to finalize training facilities that national teams will call home during the global tournament.
Among them is Kansas City, which will serve as the base camp for defending champion Argentina national football team, a major win for the region as it prepares to welcome both players and tens of thousands of international fans.
Base camps are critical to World Cup operations. They serve as home headquarters where teams live, train and recover while traveling between match sites throughout the competition.
WORLD CUP 2026: WHAT ARE THE HOST COUNTRIES, CITIES, STADIUMS?
"From private practice fields to player recovery rooms, these facilities are designed to support some of the biggest names in soccer," said Alan Dietrich, who has worked closely with organizers.
Local leaders have spent more than a year pitching their cities to international teams, hoping to showcase not just athletic facilities but the broader community.
"We started actually over a year ago with countries beginning to visit," Dietrich said.
WORLD CUP DEMAND SPARKS LODGING SCRAMBLE IN KANSAS CITY
Tourism officials say the opportunity extends far beyond the sport itself. Hosting a base camp allows cities to introduce themselves to global audiences and build long-term international relationships.
"We knew that the World Cup was going to be kind of our first chance and probably our biggest chance to be engaging these international markets," said Devin Aaron with Visit KC.
Early expectations had Argentina basing in Miami, but Kansas City ultimately stood out during the selection process.
"When Argentina visited, they really loved it here," Dietrich said. "They loved our facilities, they loved our people."
The team will train at Sporting Kansas City’s Compass Minerals National Performance Center, a state-of-the-art facility in Kansas City, Kansas that will serve as Argentina’s training home base during the tournament.
THE 2026 FIFA WORLD CUP LESS THAN 100 DAYS OUT! HERE'S WHAT TO KNOW
The complex features multiple professional grade fields and elite level training amenities designed for international competition.
Inside, players will have access to private dining areas, meeting rooms and dedicated recovery spaces designed to help them rest between matches.
"If they’ve traveled a lot and they’re tired, they can come in here, turn the lights out and get a nice nap," Dietrich added.
Up to 100,000 Argentine fans are expected to travel to Kansas City during the tournament, a preview of the global crowds set to flood World Cup host cities across the U.S.
Across the U.S., cities selected as host sites and base camps are preparing for similar surges, as teams finalize training locations and fans follow their national squads.
The 2026 World Cup will be the largest in history, expanding from 32 to 48 teams and spanning host cities across the United States, Canada and Mexico, with each location competing for global visibility and long-term economic impact.
Jason Momoa flees Hawaiian home amid dangerous flooding
Jason Momoa was forced to evacuate O'ahu's North Shore with his family after historic flooding devastated the area.
The "Aquaman" actor revealed on social media that his family fled their home after losing power due to seasonal cyclones.
"We’re safe for now but there’s a lot of people who weren’t, so sending all of our love," Momoa told his followers on Instagram.

"The North Shore is pretty gnarly right now. So hopefully everyone’s safe and getting out. Stay safe out there."
Despite the temporary displacement, Momoa rallied for his community in a big way.
"These past weeks have been heavy," he wrote online. "The storms, the flooding, the constant rain across Oʻahu have affected so many of our people especially those already facing hardship. Seeing families displaced, communities struggling, and our unhoused neighbors hit the hardest."

Momoa, along with girlfriend Adria Arjona, "spread aloha" and distributed more than 200 plates of food to locals after the floods.
"We spent time on the west side, just trying to show love, bring some food, and remind our community that we see you, we stand with you, and you’re not alone," Momoa wrote.

"That’s what aloha is. It’s showing up for each other when it matters most."
More than 2,000 people remained without power on Sunday after Hawaii suffered its worst flooding in more than 20 years due to heavy rains.
The storm prompted evacuation orders for 5,500 people north of Honolulu.
No deaths were reported, and more than 200 people were rescued from the waters.

Governor Josh Green said the state was very much "still in this" on Saturday with a "statewide flood watch" in effect through the weekend after issuing an evacuation order the day before for Waialua and Hale'iwa.
"Conditions remain dangerous because the ground is already saturated, meaning it will take much less rain to trigger flooding, road closures and damage," Green shared on X.
The governor said that damages could top over $1 billion, with damages to airports, roads, homes and a Maui hospital.
Man charged in $90M Medicare fraud scheme; DOJ says suspect may have entered US illegally
A foreign national suspected of entering the United States illegally has been charged in a fraud scheme that allegedly attempted to steal more than $90 million in federal health care funds distributed through the Medicare Advantage program, according to the Justice Department.
Anar Rustamov, 38, was indicted by a federal grand jury last week and charged with health care fraud for a scheme involving thousands of false claims for medical equipment totaling more than $90 million, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of California said in a press release.
He previously lived in Sunnyvale, California, and is a foreign national from Azerbaijan who may have entered the United States illegally, according to the release.
LOS ANGELES COUNTY FACES SCRUTINY AFTER ALLEGED WIDESPREAD HOSPICE FRAUD EXPOSED
Rustamov was allegedly part of a scheme to submit thousands of fraudulent claims to Medicare Advantage Organizations on behalf of unsuspecting beneficiaries for medical equipment like blood glucose monitors and orthotic braces, the release states.
The indictment alleges that from October 2024 through June 2025, Rustamov used a company he created, Dublin Helping Hand, to submit large volumes of claims to Medicare Advantage Organizations offering benefit plans.
The scheme allegedly sought reimbursement of more than $90 million for medical equipment that was not provided, not needed by patients or not approved by a medical provider, according to the indictment.
The listed patients were unaware that their information was used to submit the claims, and the referring medical provider listed on the submissions did not authorize the claims, the indictment alleges.
Rustamov remains at large, according to federal officials.
"When the Administration declared a War on Fraud, it meant to target exactly this kind of conduct. Rustamov participated in a scheme to steal nearly $100 million in taxpayer funds from a program intended to help those who truly need medical care," U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of California Craig H. Missakian said in a statement.

"Anyone who believes they can make easy money by defrauding such programs should know that we will continue to work with our law enforcement partners to identify, investigate, and prosecute such fraud and abuse," he continued.
If convicted, Rustamov could face a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison and a fine of $250,000 for each violation.
Iowa hits clutch 3-pointer in closing seconds to stun Florida
Timely shots and a gritty performance helped the Iowa Hawkeyes knock off the defending NCAA men’s basketball national champion Florida Gators on Sunday night, 73-72.
Down two points, Iowa inbounded the ball to guard Bennett Stirtz who dribbled up the floor and found Alvaro Folgueiras in the corner. Folgueiras took one dribble back to make sure he was above the 3-point line and nailed the go-ahead bucket for just over four seconds left.

Folgueiras pointed to the sky to honor his late father. Florida couldn’t get a last-second shot up and Iowa won the game. He was seen hugging his mother in the stands.
"It’s really special," Folgueiras said after the game. "We went through a lot of moments in the season. I’ve been in a lot of moments in my life. My mom is there after fighting for me her whole life. This is really special. It’s for the dreamers and there’s no better dreamers than us."
ST JOHN'S SENDS KANSAS PACKING WITH DRAMATIC BUZZER-BEATING LAYUP IN NCAA TOURNAMENT
Folgueiras scored 14 points and had five rebounds in the win. Iowa star Tavion Banks added 20 points on 7-of-10 from the field.
Florida’s Alex Condon led the Gators with 21 points, seven assists and five rebounds. Thomas Haugh added 19 points and Xavian Lee had 17 points.
It will be the first time since 1999 that Iowa will be able to compete in the Sweet 16. In that year, J.R. Koch and the Hawkeyes lost to the Rip Hamilton-led UConn Huskies.
Florida is the first No. 1 seed in the men's tournament to fall.
The Gators will no longer be in the running to be repeat champions. It means the Dan Hurley-led UConn team remains the only back-to-back champions since Florida began its own dynasty in 2006 and 2007.

Trump, Starmer agree Strait of Hormuz must reopen as Middle East conflict escalates
President Donald Trump spoke with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Sunday to discuss escalating tensions in the Middle East, with a focus on the urgent need to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and restore global shipping.
The leaders discussed the current situation in the Middle East, and in particular, the need to reopen the Strait of Hormuz to resume global shipping, Downing Street said in a statement.
STEALTH BOMBERS LANDING AT UK BASES 'IN DAYS' AFTER TRUMP PRESSURES STARMER: REPORT
"They agreed that reopening the Strait of Hormuz was essential to ensure stability in the global energy market. They agreed to speak again soon."
The call came amid a rapidly intensifying conflict in the region, with Iran blocking the strategically vital strait since the United States and Israel launched coordinated strikes against Iranian targets on Feb. 28.
The military action triggered swift retaliation from Tehran and has since escalated into a broader regional war as Iran has sent missiles into numerous neighboring countries not directly involved in the initial conflict.
UK NUCLEAR SUBMARINE DEPLOYED TO ARABIAN SEA BEFORE IRAN TARGETS KEY US-UK BASE: REPORTS
On March 21, Trump issued a 48-hour ultimatum to Iran demanding the reopening of the key maritime route, through which approximately 20% of the world’s oil supply passes.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump warned that failure to comply would result in further U.S. action, including potential strikes on Iran’s energy infrastructure.
EU PUSHES FOR END OF IRAN WAR IN A MANNER WHERE 'EVERYBODY SAVES FACE'
Sunday's conversation between Trump and Starmer perhaps reflected a thaw in the tense relationship between the two leaders.
Trump had publicly criticized the U.K. government, stating that Britain "should have acted a lot faster" in allowing the U.S. to use British military bases for strikes targeting Iranian missile sites.
Starmer had also maintained that the use of U.K. bases could only be justified under the principle of "collective self-defense" in the region.
He had initially declined to support the U.S.-Israeli military operation, drawing repeated criticism from the White House.
Meanwhile, Trump appeared to apply public pressure, sharing a "Saturday Night Live" clip Sunday mocking the British prime minister’s handling of the crisis.
'Bachelorette' alum James McCoy Taylor arrested again in connection with assault case
"The Bachelorette" alum James McCoy Taylor was arrested on Friday in connection with his 2024 assault case in which he pleaded guilty and was sentenced last year.
On Friday, Taylor, who competed on JoJo Fletcher's season of "The Bachelorette" in 2016, was arrested at the Brazos County Sheriff's Department and released the same day on a $10,000 surety bond, according to online records viewed by Fox News Digital.
Fox News Digital confirmed in August 2024 that College Station Police Department officers arrested Taylor at a bar in the Northgate Entertainment District of College Station, Texas, on warrants issued by the Bryan Police Department.
The Bryan Police Department charged Taylor with assault causing bodily injury and unlawful restraint on April 24, 2024. The charges involved a 19-year-old college student, who accused Taylor of physically assaulting her and preventing her from leaving his residence. However, Taylor was not booked until Aug. 4, according to Brazos County jail records.
‘HOME IMPROVEMENT’ STAR ZACHERY TY BRYAN SENTENCED TO 16 MONTHS IN PRISON AFTER STRING OF LEGAL WOES
Last April, Taylor pleaded guilty to both charges and was sentenced to 18 months of probation , along with 80 hours of community service, a $750 fine, and $350 in court costs. He was also ordered to take anger management classes, have no contact with the victim and stay out of the Northgate Entertainment District.
Per court records, Taylor's latest arrest came after the court revoked his probation and issued an arrest warrant on Feb. 17 following his apparent failure to pay the entirety of the full amount of his court-mandated fines.
According to court records, Taylor still owes $300 after paying out of $1,184 in fines, $884 of the $1,184 in fines. He last made a payment in the amount of $80 shortly before his arrest.
NEW VIDEO SHOWS JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE STRUGGLING THROUGH SOBRIETY TESTS DURING HAMPTONS STOP
Fox News Digital has reached out Taylor for comment.
Shortly after his arrest in August 2024, Taylor addressed the incident in a statement to People magazine and denied any wrongdoing.
He told the outlet that after the incident, there was "not so much as a scratch on me (as I showed to police via pictures of my whole body which was awkward to say the least)."
"I'm a pretty big guy but I was trying to 'unlawfully restrain' a girl and she just … got away?… and walked right to her Uber right outside my house? With NO injuries?" Taylor continued. "Trust me, if there were ANY injuries they’d be all over the internet."
"To people reading this: If you want fame, it never ends up like that. If you want money, it never ends up like that. If you want to ruin my life, it always ends up like that… keep it up," he added. "I would never hurt anybody. I’m nice to EVERY person I meet."
"I don't know the daughter's name because we didn't spend much time together but I feel like she wouldn't want all this to have gotten here either if she could go back. And I don't hate you either. I just wish I knew where you were coming from and where this came from," he concluded.
Taylor previously faced legal woes issues in September 2022 after the Texas-based musician was arrested for driving while intoxicated. Taylor was also charged with unlawful possession of a weapon at the time. An officer noticed Taylor urinating in a parking lot and found the reality TV star was that he was visibly intoxicated, according to the arrest warrant obtained by KBTX.
The officer advised Taylor not to drive his vehicle but spotted him back inside the truck driving through a parking garage shortly after later driving through a parking garage.

Taylor had an 18-year-old in the truck with him, and she was also impaired, according to police. The college freshman "was not in any kind of condition to appraise the benefits and risks of the situation she was in," the warrant stated.
While searching Taylor's vehicle, authorities found a handgun stowed in the door. It is illegal to carry a weapon in Texas while committing a crime, including driving while intoxicated.

Taylor was found guilty of the charges and sentenced to five days in jail. He was also given a $500 fine and ordered to pay $585 in court costs, according to KBTX.
During his stint on season 12 of "The Bachelorette," Fletcher sent Taylor home in week seven.
Fletcher went on to accept a proposal from Jordan Rodgers. The sports commentator is the younger brother of NFL star Aaron Rodgers.
Rodgers and Fletcher married in May 2022 after a six-year engagement.
According to posts on his official Instagram page, Taylor is married to McKenzie Linden, with whom he shares one daughter. He is also the stepfather to Linden's four daughters from a previous relationship.

Scott Bessent calls out 'terrible framing' during clash with NBC News host on Iranian oil
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent clashed with NBC's Kristen Welker on Sunday as the two debated the effects of the war with Iran, specifically with regard to oil, as gas prices have skyrocketed since the war began.
Welker pressed Bessent on why the Treasury Department "lifted sanctions on Iranian oil stored on tankers," which, according to Welker, would allow Iran to "get more than $14 billion of oil revenue." Bessent rejected Welker's framing, and said, "Kristen, why don't we have good facts here?"
"That Iranian oil was always going to be sold to the Chinese. It was going to be sold at a discount. So, which is better, Kristen? Which is better if oil prices spiked to $150, and they were getting 70% of that, or oil prices below $100? It's better to have them where they are now. And to be clear, we had always planned for this contingency. About 140 million barrels are out on the water. In essence, we are jiu-jitsu-ing the Iranians," he told Welker.
Welker then asked Bessent about how much lifting the sanctions would really help prices.
STEVE MOORE: FIVE ENERGY TRUTHS THE MEDIA IGNORE AS AMERICA’S OIL BOOM BLUNTS THE IRAN WAR’S IMPACT
"Let me talk about the real-world impact of this because you're talking about 140 million barrels of Iranian oil, and that's just a little bit more than what the world uses in one day. How much can that really change prices here?" Welker asked.
Bessent responded by saying, "Kristen, terrible framing. Terrible framing." He then went on to explain that roughly 20 million barrels per day come out of the Gulf, and that five million are repurposed by Saudi Arabia.
"One hundred and forty million barrels, about 20 million barrels a day, come out of the Gulf. About 5 million has been repurposed by the Saudis, by the UAE. So we're at a 15 deficit. About one-point-five is Iranian oil that comes out. So we are at between a 10 and 14 million deficit on a daily basis. So, if you think about 140 million barrels, that's between 10 days and two weeks of supply," Bessent said.
He continued, saying, "And one of the reasons that prices in the U.S. of West Texas intermediate are below $100 — and we have not seen this massive spike as we did during the beginning of Russia-Ukraine — is because we are well supplied in the market. Whether it is the Russian oil, whether it is the Iranian oil, or it is the largest SPR release in history done by a coalition of 32 countries, 400 million barrels."
BESSENT PUSHES BACK ON CNBC REPORTER OVER TRUMP’S RUSSIAN OIL STRATEGY
Welker accused the Trump administration of "rewarding" Russia by easing sanctions earlier this month, to which Bessent said she was "missing the point."
"Again, Kristen, you're missing the point. Which is better? Does Russia get more money if oil goes to 150, and they get 70% of that, that's 105, or if oil stays below 100? So they're getting less money. Our analysis shows that the maximum extra amount the Russia could get would be $2 billion, which is one day of the Russian Federation's budget," Bessent said.
"I don't know who does your research, you should get rid of them because they were getting it. It was going into China. China was buying over 90% of the Russian oil," Bessent said, as Welker insisted Russia wouldn't be getting any of the money if they didn't ease the sanctions.

President Donald Trump issued a 48-hour ultimatum to Iran on Saturday, warning the U.S. would strike its power plants if the Strait of Hormuz is not reopened.
"If Iran doesn’t FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST!" Trump said in a post on Truth Social.
Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a global choke point for oil and gas transport that supplies roughly one-fifth of the world’s crude oil, has been largely limited since early March, shortly after the war with Iran began.
Iran threatens mass ‘water war’ with strikes on key plants in days, UN official warns
Iran is poised to strike critical desalination infrastructure across the Middle East within days, escalating tensions with the U.S. and Israel and triggering global economic fallout, a U.N. official warned Sunday.
Kaveh Madani, an Iranian scientist and U.N. official, said desalination plants across the region could be hit "within the next few days," raising the prospect of a broader regional water crisis and affecting global markets.
The strike threats made by the regime on Sunday came in response to President Donald Trump's warning that the U.S. would hit Iranian power infrastructure unless the Strait of Hormuz was opened within 48 hours.
A spokesperson for the Central Headquarters of Hazrat Khatam al-Anbiya (PBUH) said, "Following previous warnings, if Iran’s fuel and energy infrastructure is attacked by the enemy, all energy, information technology, and desalination infrastructure belonging to the US and the regime in the region will be targeted."
"The desalination plants might be targeted again within the next few days," Madani told Fox News Digital.
"The driest region of the world might see a real water war, but the knock-on effects on the world’s economy, including the U.S., will be both immediate and lasting," Madani said, pointing to what he described as a "new phase in the conflict" involving such critical civilian infrastructure.
"Now, add the possibility of damage to the already fragile water infrastructure, including treatment plants, pumping stations, and distribution networks," he said. "The consequences would be catastrophic and lasting."
Kaveh’s warning comes as the conflict — now in its fourth week — has expanded beyond military targets. Desalination facilities, including a plant on Iran’s Qeshm Island and another in Bahrain, have allegedly already been struck.
US 'LOCKED AND LOADED' TO DESTROY IRAN’S 'CROWN JEWEL' 'IF WE WANT,' TRUMP WARNS
Desalination, the process of creating drinkable water from seawater, is critical to supplying water across Israel and many of Iran’s Gulf neighbors, particularly in such arid regions where natural freshwater is scarce.
Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf, speaker of the Iranian parliament, echoed the regime’s threats in a post on X on Sunday, warning that "critical infrastructure, energy, and oil across the region will be irreversibly destroyed, and oil prices will rise for a long time" if Iran’s power plants are struck.
"With a blackout, water treatment and distribution systems will also collapse in some parts of the country," Madani clarified.
"Iran will retaliate by attacking desalination, energy, and other energy-related infrastructure in all countries in the region that are parties to the war, including Israel," he added. "The price of oil and gas will increase further, and the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed, while a humanitarian disaster is created as millions of people lose access to water and electricity in the region."
TRUMP SAYS US ‘OBLITERATED’ TARGETS IN STRIKE ON KEY IRANIAN OIL HUB
"The U.S. has allegedly already attacked a desalination plant in Qeshm Island, and the Iranians have allegedly responded by striking a plant in Bahrain," he said.
"Iran is the least reliant on desalination plants, so it is explicitly including them as legitimate targets for retaliation because this is the biggest vulnerability of the other parties to the war across the Middle East," he added.
Despite that relative advantage, Iran itself has faced years of severe drought, mismanagement of water resources, and declining groundwater levels, leaving parts of the country increasingly water-stressed.
"If Iranians run out of water and/or electricity, they won’t rise up," Holly Dagres, Libitzky Family Senior Fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, said.
"The unfortunate truth is that the Islamic Republic would rather allow the country to burn than appear weak while it is facing an existential threat," she said.
St John's sends Kansas packing with dramatic buzzer-beating layup in NCAA Tournament
March Madness has a new darling.
St. John’s Red Storm guard Dylan Darling found a lane and drove it. With four seconds left in the game, he blew past Kansas Jayhawks defender Elmarko Jackson and made the game-winning layup before time expired.

For the first time since 1999, the Red Storm will be headed to the Sweet 16 in the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament.
"It was ugly, but we got it done," Darling said.
The No. 4-seeded St. John’s struggled late in the second half as Kansas pressed up the floor. St. John’s held a 10-point lead with 6:36 left in the game. But a few missed shots and a couple of turnovers and the Jayhawks were right back in the game.
Kansas star Darryn Peterson made two free throws with 13 seconds left to tie the game. The Jayhawks, who were the No. 5 seed, had four fouls to give and used them all up to get the game down to about four seconds to go. The idea was to keep the Red Storm on their toes and to keep them from setting up a decent inbounds play.

But Darling got the last laugh with his two-point bucket – his only points of the game. He had four assists and two steals.
Red Storm’s Zuby Ejofor and Bryce Hopkins each had 18 points to lead St. John’s.
Peterson led Kansas with 21 points. Melvin Council Jr. had 15 points and Flory Bidunga had 12 points.
It’s the fourth straight year that Kansas has been unable to get out of the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
