Fred Kerley , 29 , is charged with misdemeanour battery in the incident that left Alaysha Johnson with a bloody nose.

Kerley won a silver medal in the 100-metre race at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo and a bronze medal at the Paris Olympic Games in 2024 .

His lawyer says Kerley has “a target on his back” that leads to unfounded allegations by “fierce and sometimes jealous competitors”.
