Sprinter Xavier Carter Arrested in Gainesville

Xavier Carter was arrested Sunday in Gainesville, FL for carrying a concealed weapon.

He was released without bail without an attorney on record, according to jail records.

Police found a loaded Smith & Wesson .40-caliber pistol in the pocket of Carter's driver-side door. Carter told police he shot the gun earlier in the day but didn't specify where and why, the records stated.

Carter did not make the Olympic team. He was arrested in December 2007 for running from the police.
