NEW YORK, May 4 (UPI) -- Olympic gold medal sprinter Tim Montgomery pleaded not guilty Thursday in a New York federal court to fraud and money-laundering charges.

Montgomery was charged with conspiring with Steven Riddick, his former track coach, and 11 others to net $5 million by cashing in on stolen, forged and counterfeit checks.
A doping scandal has barred the runner from competition for two years. The doping incident cost him a 100-meter world record.
