MADRID (AP) — Brazilian soccer player Dani Alves will remain in jail after a Spanish court on Monday denied another one of his requests to be freed on bail while an investigation into a sexual assault accusation against him continues.The Barcelona court said Alves remains a flight risk and should stay detained until the investigation concludes. The court previously denied a similar request by Alves’ defense team in May. Alves was provisionally detained in January after being accused of sexually assaulting a woman at a nightclub in Barcelona on Dec. 30. He has denied wrongdoing and said sex with the accuser was consensual.A judge ordered the former Barcelona defender to be jailed without bail after analyzing the initial probe by authorities and hearing testimony from Alves, the alleged victim and witnesses. A trial date has not been set.Alves’ lawyers had tried to discredit testimony by the alleged victim and other witnesses by presenting security camera footage showing that Alves an...Prayers and tears — Berlusconi in death draws tributes even from his critics

WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden’s packed Monday schedule was derailed by none other than a root canal.Biden was supposed to host College Athlete Day at the White House, but Vice President Kamala Harris will sub for him while he undergoes the dental procedure, which should take about 30 minutes to an hour. Biden was scheduled to meet with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg in the Oval Office in the afternoon and deliver remarks at the Chiefs of Missions Reception in the East Room in the evening. It’s not clear yet whether or not he’ll have to scrap those other events, too.On Sunday, Biden said he was experiencing some pain in his lower right premolar — tooth 29, to be exact, according to a letter from Kevin C. O’Connor, physician to the president. The dental team from Walter Reed National Medical Center examined the president and took X-rays.The team decided that the president needed a root canal, and they performed an initial procedure at the time, with a plan for th...Scottish National Party in turmoil after Nicola Sturgeon arrest

LONDON — Scotland’s First Minister Humza Yousaf rebuffed calls to suspend his predecessor Nicola Sturgeon from the ruling Scottish National Party after she was questioned by police.Sturgeon was arrested and then released without charge pending further investigation Sunday amid a Police Scotland probe into the SNP’s funding and finances. She has described herself as “innocent of any wrongdoing.”But the arrest has further highlighted deep splits in the SNP as Yousaf, who succeeded Sturgeon at the top of the party and Scottish government after a bruising leadership contest earlier this year, battles to escape the shadow of the police probe.High-profile SNP lawmakers on Monday followed Scottish opposition parties in calling for Yousaf to suspend Sturgeon’s membership of the SNP, which she continues to represent as a member of the Scottish Parliament in Holyrood.Ash Regan, who ran against Yousaf in the leadership election triggered by Sturgeon’s resign...Repairs to the collapsed section of I-95 in Philadelphia will take months

(CNN) — The governor of Pennsylvania is expected to issue a disaster declaration Monday as officials set up alternate routes following the collapse of an Interstate 95 overpass in Philadelphia, which came down Sunday after a tanker truck caught fire below the roadway, leaving a portion of the East Coast’s primary highway with major damage that could take months to repair.The declaration from Gov. Josh Shapiro will allow the state to dip into federal funds and cut through red tape to expedite repairs on the damaged roadway, which usually carries about 160,000 vehicles through the city daily, making it “likely the busiest interstate in our commonwealth,” according to Pennsylvania Department of Transportation Secretary Mike Carroll.The National Transportation Safety Board is also sending a team to the site of the collapse to conduct a safety investigation, the agency said Sunday. “The investigators are specialists in motor carrier and hazardous materials safety, hig...JPMorgan reaches settlement with Jeffrey Epstein victims

By JOCELYN NOVECK (AP National Writer)NEW YORK (AP) — No script? No problem!There was plenty of uncertainty in the run-up to this year’s Tony Awards, which at one point seemed unlikely to happen at all because of the ongoing Hollywood writer’s strike.But the ceremony went off without a hitch on Sunday night. The event was scriptless, to honor a compromise with striking writers, but chock-full of high-spirited Broadway performances drawing raucous cheers from an audience clearly thrilled just to be there at all. It was a night of triumph for the small-scale but huge-hearted musical “Kimberly Akimbo,” about a teenager with a rare aging disease, but also a night notable for inclusion: Two nonbinary performers, Alex Newell and J. Harrison Ghee, made history by winning their respective acting categories. The ceremony also touched on the specter of antisemitism in very different places: World War II Europe, with best play winner “Leopoldstadt,” an...Latest news
