Sprinter Sha'Carri Richardson arrested for incident at Washington airport involving boyfriend
Reigning 100-meter world champion Sha'Carri Richardson was arrested last weekend for allegedly assaulting her boyfriend at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Richardson was charged Sunday with fourth degree domestic violence, according to the police report obtained by The Associated Press. On Thursday, she ran in the opening round the women's 100 meters at U.S. track and field championships in Eugene, Oregon. She has an automatic bye to the world championships in September in Tokyo as the defending champion. The 25-year-old Richardson was booked into the South Correctional Entity (SCORE) in Des Moines, Washington, at 6:54 p.m. last Sunday and released Monday at 1:13 p.m. 'USATF is aware of the reports and is not commenting on this matter,' USA Track and Field said in a statement. Richardson's agent did not immediately reply to an email request for comment. The police report said an officer at the airport was notified by a Transportation Security Administration supervisor of a disturbance between Richardson and her boyfriend, sprinter Christian Coleman. The officer reviewed camera footage and observed Richardson reach out with her left arm and grab Coleman's backpack and yank it away. Richardson then appeared to get in Coleman's way with Coleman trying to step around her. Coleman was shoved into a wall. The report later said that Richardson appeared to throw an item at Coleman, which the TSA indicated may have been headphones. In the police report, the officer said: 'I was told Coleman did not want to participate any further in the investigation and declined to be a victim.' Richardson won the 100 at the 2023 world championships in Budapest and finished with the silver at the Paris Games last summer. She also helped the 4x100 relay to an Olympic gold. She had a positive positive marijuana test at the 2021 U.S. Olympic trials and didn't compete at the Tokyo Olympics. ___ AP Summer Olympics:

Sha'Carri Richardson was arrested, released on domestic assault charge before USATF Outdoor Championships
Sha'Carri Richardson was arrested on Sunday on a domestic assault charge and released from a Washington jail on Monday, three days before the USA Track and Field Outdoor Championships began Thursday in Oregon. At Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, Richardson pushed boyfriend and fellow sprinter Christian Coleman hard at least twice and threw a pair of headphones at him, according to a police report that cited security video footage. 'Richardson advised she did not assault him in anyway and the dispute was only a verbal argument,' according to the report. The report stated Coleman said that he and Richardson got into an argument that became heated. He did not want to participate any further in the investigation and declined to be a victim. Neither Coleman nor Richardson has commented publicly. Richardson was booked into South Correctional Entity (SCORE) in Des Moines, Washington, on Sunday and released by court order on Monday. The next step is for a prosecutor's office to decide on possible action for charges. On Thursday, both Richardson and Coleman advanced out of their first-round heats in the 100m at the USATF Outdoor Championships in Eugene, Oregon. Richardson said after Thursday's race that she was undecided whether she would keep racing at nationals given she has a bye onto the team for September's World Championships as the defending world 100m champion from 2023, provided she is in good standing as a USATF member. She ultimately scratched out of Friday's 100m semifinals. She is still on the start list for Sunday's 200m first round. Coleman finished fifth in Friday's men's 100m final. USATF is aware of the situation but has no comment at this time, a spokesperson said Friday evening.

26 dogs removed from Chicago Lawn home amid animal cruelty investigation
More than two dozen dogs were removed from a home on Friday in the Chicago Lawn neighborhood, after police responded to a report of animal cruelty. Police said officers were called to a home in the 3300 block of West 65th Place around 4:30 p.m. for a report of animal cruelty, and found multiple dogs in the back yard and garage. At least one of the dogs was injured. Chicago Animal Care and Control officials confirmed 26 dogs were removed from a home. Officials said the situation would place an additional strain on the city's animal shelter, which is already near capacity. In July, the city's animal shelter took in an average of more than 50 cats and dogs per day. "While animals involved in this case will not be immediately available, we have hundreds of other pets currently waiting for loving homes. Adoption fees are waived for the entire month of August, and we encourage the public to visit the shelter. For those unable to adopt, fostering is also a vital way to help, and we work with multiple rescue partners who offer foster programs," a Chicago Animal Care and Control spokesperson said. "We appreciate the public's continued support and compassion for the animals in our care." Area 1 detectives were conducting an investigation into the animal cruelty allegations.
