A New York man was arrested for allegedly hoarding face masks and coughing on FBI agents after telling them that he was diagnosed with the CCP virus.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) said 43-year-old Baruch Feldheim, of Brooklyn, was hoarding and selling medical equipment and masks, alleging he was trying to take advantage of the crisis caused by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) virus. He is accused of selling equipment at a 700 percent markup, the agency added.
