There were two big winners at one of the last major track and field races before the Rio Olympics.
Usain Bolt triumphed Friday in London at the IAAF Diamond League Athletics Muller Anniversary Games, clocking 19.89 to win a 200-meter race.

With emotions running high, the athlete took off his Puma sneakers and hurled them into the crowd — and a lucky fan who caught the shoes was so overwhelmed that she broke down in tears.
“I am officially the luckiest girl on the planet but I will cherish these for the rest of my life,” the fan later tweeted Bolt, attaching a photo of the kicks.
