US swimmer James Feigen apologises for 'serious distraction' in Rio

Feigen was pulled off an aeroplane last week by police for questioning

US swimmer James Feigen has apologised for the "serious distraction" he and three teammates caused at a petrol station during the Rio Olympics, saying he omitted facts in his statement to police.

Feigen said in a statement posted on Tuesday on the website of his lawyer in Austin, Texas, that: "I omitted the facts that we urinated behind the building and that Ryan Lochte pulled a poster off the wall."
