U.S. swimmer Ryan Lochte has been summoned to testify in Rio over his incident at a gas station during the Olympics, a Brazilian official confirmed to ABC News.
Lochte is currently home in the United States. A source told ABC News that Brazilian police want Lochte to testify in person in Brazil.
Earlier this week, Lochte admitted to overexaggerating a story in which he had claimed to have been robbed while leaving a party in Rio. Lochte’s original story about having a gun cocked and pointed at his head unraveled quickly when police investigated and discovered no evidence to support the claim.
