And police in Brazil say a football player will be charged for falsely reporting that he'd been kidnapped as an excuse for running late for training. Somalia, a midfielder for Rio de Janeiro club Botafogo, said he'd been abducted at gunpoint just after seven in the morning on his way to the training ground. But police say close circuit television footage from his apartment building showed him leaving late for work at nine in the morning. Botafogo football club threatens its players with a 40% pay cut if they are late for training.
