Sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson addressed her recent domestic violence arrest in a video on social media and issued an apology to her boyfriend Christian Coleman.
Richardson posted a video on her Instagram account Monday night in which she said she put herself in a “compromised situation.” She issued a written apology to Coleman on Tuesday morning.
Richardson was arrested July 27 on a fourth-degree domestic violence offense for allegedly assaulting Coleman at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. She was booked into South Correctional Entity in Des Moines, Washington, for more than 18 hours.
Her arrest was days before she ran the 100 meters at the U.S. championships in Eugene, Oregon.
In the video, Richardson said she’s practicing “self-reflection” and refuses “to run away but face everything that comes to me head on.
