  • 8 years ago
Ryan Lochte and three other US Olympic swimmers lied about being robbed at gunpoint to cover up a brawl they had with a gas station security guard, authorities said Thursday. Brazilian authorities have video of an incident involving Ryan Lochte, Jack Conger, Gunnar Bentz Jimmy Feigen, and a rent-a-cop. At least one of the swimmers can be seen fighting with the security guard and one of the Americans was shown breaking down a bathroom door during the melee, according to ABC. All three men planned to meet with Brazilian law enforcement on Thursday, according to USOC spokesman Patrick Sandusky.
