 Dutch referee Rob Dieperink dies weeks after removal from World Cup officiating list Dutch referee Rob Dieperink has died at the age of 38, weeks after FIFA removed him from its list of officials for the World Cup. The Dutch Football Association (KNVB) confirmed his death in a statement, saying it was “shocked and deeply saddened” by the news. His cause of death has not been disclosed. Dieperink was arrested in April by the Metropolitan Police in the United Kingdom following a report of an alleged sexual assault involving a teenage boy in London.

Mystery winner claims $1.58 billion US lottery jackpot

The Florida Lottery said the winner of the $1.58 billion jackpot, the second-largest in U.S. history has come forward to claim the prize.
But the person’s identity may remain a secret for another 90 days..
The Mega Millions jackpot was claimed on Monday, seven weeks after the Aug. 8 drawing, Florida Lottery said in a statement.
Florida is one of 45 states plus Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands to participate in Mega Millions.
The lottery went for 31 twice-weekly drawings without a winner until a ticket buyer at a Publix supermarket in Neptune Beach, about 15 miles (24 km) east of Jacksonville, matched all six numbers.
Mega Millions said the $1.58 billion jackpot was the largest in its history, topping a $1.537 billion prize that was won in South Carolina in 2018.
That would rank it second behind the record set in the rival Powerball lottery, which was a $2.04 billion jackpot for a ticket sold in California in November 2022, according to Powerball’s website.
The Florida Mega Millions winner will have the option of claiming the full amount paid in a 30-year annuity or taking a lump sum of $794.2 million cash, according to the Mega Millions website. Winnings are taxed.
Under Florida law, lottery winners who claim prizes of $250,000 or more do not have to reveal their identities publicly until 90 days after the prize is claimed.
For a $2 ticket, the odds of winning the jackpot are about 1 in 300 million.
