Ryan Lochte has been banned from swimming until next June and will forfeit 100,000 dollars (£75,000) in bonus money that went with his gold medal at the Olympics.

It is part of the penalty for his drunken encounter at a petrol station in Brazil during last month's games.

What was the petrol station incident?

Him and some other American swimmers were drunk and caused some damage to the petrol station shop/toilets. When it was discovered by guards they were made to pay for the damage but they lied saying they had been robbed at gun point.
