An Australian athlete was sent home from the Commonwealth Games for bad behaviour this week and a washing machine was dropped from a balcony in Australia's section of the athlete's village after the closing celebrations.
No one was injured by the washing machine but Perry Crosswhite, Australia Commonwealth Games Association Chief Executive, said he was was disappointed by the incident on Thursday night. "We don't know who did that," Crosswhite told journalists on Friday.
"Delhi police came around and they've done a report and an investigation and we'll hear about that."
Crosswhite was not sure from which level of the 10-storey building the machine was dropped.
He also revealed that one athlete was sent home a few days ago for bad behaviour but would not reveal the person's identity.

"At the end of the Games these things happen," Crosswhite said. "When everybody is finished, they are letting their hair down, they do all sorts of things.
"We just sort of manage it and get on with it." Around 300 athletes will depart Delhi on a chartered Qantas flight later on Friday.
