Olympic track star Christian Coleman is speaking out in support of his girlfriend Sha'Carri Richardson after she was arrested for domestic violence despite being the alleged victim  describing the incident as a "sucky situation. Coleman, one of the fastest sprinters in the world, came to Richardson's defense following her July 27 arrest, when his GF was arrested after allegedly shoving him multiple times at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. SR was charged with fourth-degree domestic violence and spent more than 18 hours behind bars. "For me personally, I feel like it was a sucky situation all around," Coleman told reporters after the U.S. championships in Oregon on Sunday. "I don't feel like she should have been arrested. People have emotions and stuff like that, and she has things she gotta work on for herself. So do I, so do you." In fact, Coleman who placed sixth in the men's 200-meter final on Sunday said he tried to reason with the airport police, but there was no stopping the arrest after police said they had video footage of the alleged assault it's clear Coleman still has his girl's back. "She's the best female athlete in the world," Coleman said, "She gon' be just fine. She gon' be good. I'm gon' be good. It is what it is. Richardson widely regarded as one of the best female sprinters in the world was also at the U.S. track and field championships in Oregon on Sunday
