Noah Lyles' mother

Noah Lyles' mother, Keisha Caine Bishop, has publicly condemned the security team at the Paris Olympics for their inaction during a medical emergency involving her son. Following the 200-meter final, where Lyles secured a bronze medal despite battling COVID-19, Bishop described the terrifying moment when her son struggled to breathe, but security allegedly refused to call for medical assistance. In her emotional Instagram post, she expressed gratitude towards the NBC Olympics team and USA Track & Field for their support, contrasting their empathy with the neglect she felt from the stadium security. Lyles, who had previously won gold in the 100 meters, later announced his departure from the Olympics due to his health issues. Bishop emphasized the helplessness she experienced and called for better treatment from security personnel, wishing for compassion if their loved ones were in need. Lyles remains focused on recovery and future competitions, including the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.
