Security Guard Who Confronted Ryan Lochte Tells His Side of the Story. The 34-year-old guard, who chose to remain anonymous and spoke in Portuguese, claims that there was no violent altercation with the swimmers, but that the 12-time Olympic medalist and his teammates came to the gas station and appeared to have been drinking. “These guys came here causing trouble … but we did not touch them at all,” the guard states. “There was never any physical contact. I only showed my gun … I did not order them to lay down on the floor and the gun was certainly not pointed in anyone’s face.”
