Thieves Rob Usain Bolt’s Home

The home of triple Olympic gold medalist and World Record holder Usain Bolt was robbed on Tuesday while away on a professional assignment.

876radio.com understands that the culprits gained access to the property located in Upper St. Andrew while the sprinter’s half-brother Sadeke Bolt was inside asleep.

Fortunately he was not harmed, but the thieves made off with several valuable items including a computer notebook, digital camera and mobile phones valued at approximately U$1,000.

The incident was reported to the police who theorise robbery as the motive. Bolt is currently in the Czech Republic city of Ostrava where he recently ran his third race of the season clocking a wind aided 9.77 seconds to win the 100 metres at the IAAF Golden Spike Grand Prix.

Usain Bolt Clocks Fastest Ever 150m

Put him in an Olympic stadium or a shopping street in the centre of Manchester and the result is the same: total annihilation.

The frightening thing is that the big Jamaican, who pushed back the boundaries of possibility last summer when he won three gold medals in world record time in Beijing, insists he is still only 70 per cent fit following an interrupted winter and the loss of nine days’ training after his car crash last month.

His winning time in Sunday’s rarely run 150 metres was an eye-popping 14.35sec, smashing the previous best-known time for the distance of Canada’s Donovan Bailey - 14.99sec run on bend against Michael Johnson in 1997.

Britain’s Marlon Devonish was a distant second in 15.07sec. He admitted Bolt was in “a league of his own”.

Bolt’s time will now be ratified by the International Association of Athletics Federations as an official ‘world best’, though it is his 100m split-time that will send shockwaves across the world - 9.90sec on a rain-soaked track in temperatures more common to February than mid-May.

Usain Bolt Issues Public Apology

World triple sprint record holder, Usain Bolt, is rushing to clarify statements attributed to him by a popular German magazine.

The Jamaican sprint sensation caused some eyebrows to be raised after the article claimed the track star made comments about Jamaican children using marijuana.

According to the article the athlete said “…When you’re a child in Jamaica you learn how to roll a joint…”

In a release issued Monday, Bolt moved swiftly to deny making any such comments, admittedly he confessed to smoking marijuana as a child but never made a statement describing drug use among children in Jamaica .

Bolt said he would like to publicly apologise to the Jamaican people if at anytime it came across as if he was suggesting youngsters in Jamaica “…roll joints.”.

German tabloid BILD reported Sunday that the Jamaican sprint phenomenon also confessed to using marijuana as a recreational drug during his formative years, but said he has not touched it since.  

The Olympic triple gold medalist and record holder’s interview with the German tabloid which was done at Boys and Girls Champs recently has received significant traction throughout the world.

In another article published on Saturday in the New York Times, Bolt was quoted as saying that eight (8) time Olympic gold Medalist Michael Phelps who was photographed with a bong was stupid and also that his competitor Asafa Powell tended to “…freak out.” at the big moments.
