Brazilian Court Tosses Criminal Case Against Olympic Swimmer Ryan Lochte

U.S. Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte has been cleared by a Brazilian court of criminal charges for filing a false robbery during the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.

The court said that it dismissed the case after determining that Lochte's robbery claim made to NBC did not constitute filing of a fake report, a crime punishable by up to 18 months in prison.
