TMZ cites witnesses as saying that the athlete who threw the punch was not involved in the race. He was reportedly standing on the track, and the runner in first place — who ultimately got punched — told him to move out of the way.
During the next lap, instead of moving, the athlete reportedly further impeded the first-place runner, who pushed him over.
In apparent retaliation, the athlete in the black chased him down and socked him in the head.
It was not immediately known if any criminal complaints were made over the incident.
Running Magazine reported that police were called over the incident, but it was not immediately known if any charges were filed.

Around blacks, on tracks, don’t relax.
That was a hoodlum. You can tale the boy out of the ‘hood. But you can’t take the ‘hood out of the boy.
He got on to the track and blocked the lead runner twice, and no one did anything about it before he attacked him more fully.
It is not clear if he was charged, suspended or expelled from school, off the track team or anything. Did the runner who was attacked get credit for winning the race? Did the meet continue with no interruption?
Sprinters are mostly black, but mile runners tend to be white.
The Black mental case does seem like his is being controlled by some remote force. Maybe it is a mothership behind the latest comet. That savage sucker punch could have been another just as bizarre action—like laying in a bunk bed with Nike tennis shoes on.
I ask, what kind of Kool-Aid is this sucker puncher on? Why didn’t his Black mental condition just make him spin around in circles like those flies I hit with Raid. Why didn’t he find another place like the Santa Monica Pier where he could go to the very end, drink his punch and get taken up-—SSSSSSSSSLUUURPPPpppp!
I guess they're not sure if charges will be filed....
yeah right....
Why on earth would it be called guessing? isn’t guessing when there is a fifty fifty chance of being wrong?
Crazy things like this will happen if he isn’t stopped after twice blocking the lead runner and charges may not be filed. It could get worse.
A Florida high school athlete in any sport that throws a punch during an event is suspended for 6 games. I run a lacrosse website down here and it’s pretty much automatic if the incident is reported to the Florida High School Athletic Association.
No updates anywhere on the incident.
It’s disappeared down a memory hole.
Belonging to the Lackaimpulsecontrol tribe.
It’s track, not hockey.
They specialize in running away.
Notice this didn’t happen to a shot put guy.
Yes, and segregation increases every day. The violent young Simba will probably never interact with whites again after high school.
The PUNCHER was BLACK and the Runner was WHITE!! And the 2nd place runner was BLACK also, so is this a HATE CRIME?
In retrospect, I was grateful to have attended a highly disorderly majority black high school. Seeing persons of color interact in an uninhibited venue every day for 4 years taught me lessons most whites never get close to. I treasure that information - worth every bit of the stress at the time. Mostly my colleagues don’t believe my high school anecdotes, so I have stopped telling them. Let them find out for themselves why a 20 year old black man with no intention of marriage or responsibility for a child will shoot his 17 year old girlfriend to death for saying the baby might not be his in the heat of an argument. I understand it. Its scary but predictable.
Suspended???? he must be ARRESTED! But I BET the white kid won’t press charges, not the POLICE also!!!
It was a lesson many won’t experience; glad you came through it OK. As my children reached college age, we visited local schools with them, including a couple in nearby Newark (NJ). The campuses were very different from my time there decades ago; security had been much improved in terms of creating a compound on city blocks (whereas during my time anyone could walk off the street on to the campus), and within the campus there were “panic buttons” installed all over the place. I assumed that was to deal not just with outside intruders who had penetrated the perimeter, but also to protect female students from the predations of semi-literate “student athletes” (an underreported crime on many campuses). Two adjacent colleges had removed a major problem by buying a city high school nestled between them, a source of much of the crime; when we visited that building was being renovated but at least wasn’t serving as a home base for Simbas anymore. I really sympathized with the students dorming there (primarily foreigners); they couldn’t really do much at night as it wasn’t safe so there was nothing available. They had added parking decks, finally accepting that students were no longer willing to run the gauntlet from mass transit points to reach the stockade; the focus really seemed to be convincing the fathers who showed up with their daughters that they would be safe (another state school in a safer suburb seems to attract most of the white female students). The state seemed determined to keep the schools running because they are a key part of the pseudo economy left behind as private-sector employers abandoned the city; what is left is a transit hub (train/bus/airport), a large port (away from residential areas), a collection of schools, hospitals, and entertainment venues, and a large population of poor people. Like NYC, a ghost town during the scamdemic that will have a difficult time recovering.
All the talk of economic progress is just talk; unlike neighboring Jersey City, Newark has no wealthy areas - or even reasonably comfortable ones. While Jersey City attracted employers and workers from NYC, Newark saw no such growth - just more injections of public dollars.
Oh, that sounds so dismal.
Cincinnati is utterly bifurcated. About 40% upper middle class and super rich persons and about 60% low income blacks (mostly) and Appalachians. All of the white residents of the actual City limits have either fled to suburbs with good school systems or stayed in the City but sent kids to private schools. This is a small city and yet there are at least 5 private schools with endlessly long waiting lists and tuition over $20,000 per year. Some $30,000.
That is how much City residents hate the CPS.
