Olympic gold medalist Sha'Carri Richardson arrested for speeding, driving over 100 mph in Florida
Olympic track star Sha'Carri Richardson has been arrested for speeding.
Richardson, who won an Olympic Gold Medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics, was booked on Thursday in Orange County, Florida, for dangerous excessive speeding, which is considered driving faster than 100 miles per hour.
Jail records show she is still being held on a $500 bond.
At the 2024 Olympics, the athlete also won a silver medal in the 100m, along with winning gold in the women's 4x100m relay.
The Olympic wins came three years after she had tested positive for THC, a chemical found in marijuana, which prevented her from participating in the 100 meters at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
At the time, she accepted a 30-day suspension from the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency for the violation.
