Sha’Carri Richardson ended up in handcuffs on Thursday, January 29, after reportedly racing dangerously on Florida roads.
According to ABC News, authorities booked Sha’Carri Richardson into Orange County, Florida, on January 29 after allegedly speeding over 100 miles per hour. Per Wesh, deputies reportedly pulled over the Olympic track star after she allegedly hit 104mph on SR 429 near Stoneybrook Parkway. Sha’Carri was also reportedly “dangerously tailgating” and weaving across lanes to pass other drivers. Shortly after her arrest, her mugshot surfaced, showing her rocking a black top and cornrow-style braids. Jail records reportedly show that Sha’Carri is still behind bars with a $500 bond.

Sha’Carri’s Florida arrest isn’t her first legal run-in. Back in July 2025, the sprinter got arrested after an altercation with her boyfriend, Christian Coleman, at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. TMZ obtained footage showing Sha’Carri in the middle of the argument. She spent 19 hours in jail before getting released. Then in August, she took to Instagram Stories to talk about the incident, saying she’s been reflecting on what happened and holding herself fully accountable for her actions.
“A lot of self-reflection, a lot of understanding of not only putting myself in a compromising situation but somebody that I have a deep care and appreciation for as well is something that I’m holding myself accountable for,” she explained.
