Judoka Assaulted Woman?

Korea -- Judo teaches respect and athletes usually carry themselves accordingly. However, a Korean high-profile judoka's run-in with the law has raised some questions, according to joongangdaily.joins.com.

Wang Ki-chun, an Olympic silver medalist and two-time world champion in the 73 kilogram division has recently and surprisingly announced his retirement from the sport through an online fan site.

The announcement came one day after he was questioned by the police for reportedly assaulting a woman at a night club in Yongin, Gyeonggi.
