Olympic track star Sha'Carri Richardson was arrested last weekend at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport under allegations of domestic violence against her boyfriend, fellow sprinter Christian Coleman.
According to the police report obtained by The Associated Press, the altercation involved Richardson grabbing Coleman's backpack and shoving him into a wall. Airport footage captured Richardson allegedly throwing an item, believed to be headphones, at Coleman. Richardson was detained and later released from custody.
The sporting world remains largely silent, with USA Track & Field refraining from commenting on the incident. Richardson's agent also has not responded. This incident adds to Richardson's controversial history, including a prior positive marijuana test, which saw her sidelined for the Tokyo Olympics.
