Teen arrested after performing exams as doctor

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Malachi LoveRobinson had all the trappings of a medical practice — an office, a lab coat and stethoscope.

What he didn’t have, authorities say, was a medical license — few 18 year olds do. Now the Florida teen is charged with practicing medicine without a license and theft after he allegedly performed an exam on an undercover agent and took almost $3,500 from an 86-year-old woman seeking treatment for stomach pain. He’s also accused of stealing three checks from her that he cashed for almost $2,800.

Love-Robinson was released on $21,000 bail on Wednesday, one day after his arrest. He has denied the allegations.
