Jamaican Olympian ‘Ronald Levy’ Issues Statement After Being Tested Positive for Banned Substance
Olympian Ronald Levy is revealed to be the Jamaican sprint hurdler who reportedly tested positive for a banned substance included on the World Anti-Doping Agency list. Earlier, news circulated of an anonymous medallist under investigation.
