Sha'Carri Richardson arrested in alleged domestic violence incident, police say
According to the report, Richardson was arrested for domestic violence on Sunday.
Richardson and a male companion were involved in a verbal altercation as they exited through airport security, the police report states. Richardson allegedly pushed the man and he fell into a nearby column, according to the Seattle Police Department.
According to the report, police viewed airport security footage, and the video allegedly showed the man attempting to walk away from Richardson, but she continued to bump into him. Police also say Richardson threw a pair of headphones at the man.
Richardson was booked at the South Correctional Entity in Des Moines, Washington, on Sunday and released on Monday, jail records show.
'We are aware of the report and we have no comment at this time,' USA Track and Field said to USA TODAY Sports.
Richardson ran a 11.07 and finished second in her heat in the 100 meters to advance to Friday's semifinal at the U.S. track and field championships. Richardson later withdrew from the 100 semifinal but has decided to run in the 200 on Sunday, according to USA track and field.
The U.S. championships serves as a qualifing meet for the world championships. Richardson has a bye into the 100 at this year's world championships because she is the defending champion.
Richardson earned a silver medal in the 100 at the 2024 Paris Olympics. She was also a part of Team USA's gold-medal winning 4x100-relay team.
Richardson is one of the most recognizable American track and field athletes. She won the 100 meters at the 2020 Olympic trials but was later suspended for testing positive for marijuana and didn't compete at the Tokyo Olympics.

Driver rammed into crowd outside Hollywood club, then was shot. Alleged shooter now under arrest
Police have arrested a man accused of shooting the driver who allegedly rammed into a crowd of people outside an East Hollywood nightclub last month, injuring dozens. Fernando Ramirez, 29, of San Clemente, was thrown out of the Vermont Hollywood nightclub on July 19 and returned in a car around 2 a.m., allegedly plowing his Nissan sedan into a crowd of street vendors and pedestrians before his vehicle slammed into food carts and finally came to a stop, according to Los Angeles County Dist. Atty. Nathan Hochman. Ramirez was then pulled from the car and punched and kicked by bystanders, authorities said. As nightclub security guards tried to detain Ramirez, Efrain Villalobos, a Lawndale resident, allegedly approached from across the street and shot Ramirez once in the lower back before fleeing, police said. More than two weeks later, Villalobos has been arrested. He was taken into custody Sunday around 1:15 p.m. by officers from the Redondo Beach Police Department, according to L.A. police. After the shooting, police released video surveillance images and a physical description of the shooter and asked the public's help in identifying him. Police did not say whether a tip from the public led to Villalobos' arrest.

At least 36 people were injured in the incident, some of whom were trapped under the car until authorities arrived, Hochman said. Eight of the victims suffered 'serious fractures, lacerations and broken bones.' Ramirez faces life in prison if convicted as charged, according to Hochman.

Reds starter Nick Lodolo leaves game against Cubs due to blister on index finger
CHICAGO (AP) — Cincinnati left-hander Nick Lodolo abruptly left Monday night's game against the Chicago Cubs with two outs in the bottom of the second inning with a blister on his left index finger. Lodolo retired the first five Cubs hitters. Then after throwing a strike on his first pitch to Justin Turner, Lodolo gestured toward his left hand. Manager Terry Francona jogged to the mound with a trainer for a brief discussion. Lodolo walked to the dugout and was replaced by Nick Martinez with the Reds ahead 1-0. Martinez got Turner to fly to right for the final out of the second. Lodolo entered at 8-6 with a 3.09 ERA. He had won three straight decisions with a 1.32 ERA in his previous four starts. ___ AP MLB:
