Olympics: Man held after bottle thrown on to 100m track

A man has been arrested after a bottle was thrown on to the track seconds before the start of the men's 100m final at the Olympic Stadium.

A Metropolitan Police spokesman said a man had been heard shouting abuse and was then seen throwing a bottle. It landed behind the sprinters.
US athlete Justin Gatlin, who won bronze in Sunday's race, said the bottle had been a "little distraction".
Nobody was injured and the event was not disrupted, police said.
The suspect is being held in police custody at an east London police station on suspicion of causing a public nuisance.
The incident came at the end of a day during which Great Britain had picked up two more gold medals in the Games, won by Ben Ainslie in sailing at Weymouth and Andy Murray in the men's singles at Wimbledon.
On Monday, medal hopes rest with Jason Kenny in the men's sprint in the velodrome, while, in the Olympic Stadium, Dai Greene will be seeking to add 400m hurdles gold to his world title.
Gymnast Beth Tweddle will also be looking to win her first Olympic medal after topping the leaderboard in qualification for the women's uneven bars finals.

Speaking about the bottle-throwing after Sunday's 100m race, Gatlin said: "I didn't know what it was, but when you're in those blocks, and the whole stadium's quiet, you can hear a pin drop."
Gatlin said the incident had not affected the race.
"You just have to block it out and go out there and do what you got to do. You can't complain about that, the race went on and it was a great race."
Bolt told reporters he had been unaware of the incident.
He added: "No, I keep hearing that. I don't know who would have done that."
Fellow Jamaican sprinter Yohan Blake, who came second, said: "I was so focused I didn't see anything. I was so focused on just running to the line."
