Kenya’s 800m Olympic champion David Rudisha and his fellow athlete Mo Farah were briefly arrested by police officers in England.
David Rudisha and Mo had apparently set off speed cameras during a practice jog on Saturday, September 10.
Here is what the Northumbria police officers had to say about the incident:
“We were called to central Newcastle today after reports of a speeding object on the Quayside.
“Our officers attended and found two men claiming that they were Olympic gold medallists and had set off our speed cameras in a practice jog.
“They kept telling us to Google Mo Farah and David Rudisha but we weren’t having any of it so decided they needed to pay a visit to custody.“Due to a lack of evidence we had to release them without charge after a brief chat in the back of our police car.
