Ryan Lochte described Rio de Janeiro police's claims he and three other American swimmers vandalised a gas station bathroom during the Summer Olympics "absurd" in a televised interview on Tuesday.
Lochte, who appeared on ABC's Good Morning America to promote his upcoming stint of Dancing With the Stars, didn't back down from the core of what he's said in prior interviews: he was held at gunpoint and armed men demanded the swimmers pay for a damaged sign.
