Bronze medalist Fred Kerley was arrested for allegedly striking his ex-girlfriend just days before a track meet. He was set to compete in the 100-meter dash and 200-meter race but was later confirmed not to compete. This is not his first run-in with the law, as he faced a domestic violence charge in an unrelated incident from the previous year.
