Sha’Carri Richardson called boyfriend Christian Coleman “a coward” when he got the police involved in their airport altercation.
Police body cam video shows Richardson berating Coleman and calling him a coward after she attacked him at the SeaTac Airport in Washington state on July 27.
The Olympic gold medalist, 25, is seen on surveillance video shoving Coleman multiple times during their dispute.
At one point, she grabbed his backpack strap and slammed him into an airport pillar. The timid Coleman walked over to a TSA agent to beg for help.

TSA agents called police who swarmed the concourse. One officer spoke with Richardson to get her side of the story. She denied putting her hands on Coleman. “I’m being honest,” she said, while turning to yell at Coleman.

“I don’t want anything to do with him. I just want to get my stuff out of his bag,” she told the officer.
“You can ask him whatever you need to ask him,” she said. “But, yeah, you’re a coward!” she said to Coleman.
“This is the position Christian Coleman put me into… because he’s a coward,” she said.
“I will never f*** with you again,” she told Coleman.

After speaking with TSA agents, police determined Richardson was the aggressor and placed her in handcuffs.
“Just the fact that you guys are doing this to me – and he’s the man in the situation, I’m gonna comply,” she said.
Richardson spent the next 18 hours in jail before being released on bond.
Coleman defended his girlfriend in an interview days later. He said Richardson had a lot of pent up emotions trapped inside her.
Richardson apologized for her behavior in a video message on her Instagram Story on Monday. The track star said she never runs away from her demons and she is seeking counseling.
