Federal police say Lochte left Brazil on Monday on a commercial flight, two days before the judicial order. Police arrived Wednesday morning at the Olympic Village to take the swimmers' passports and gather further testimony from them about the reported robbery, US Olympic Committee spokesman Patrick Sandusky said. The robbery -- during which one of the bandits was said to have put a gun to Lochte's forehead -- reportedly occurred after the athletes left a party at the French hospitality house. But Lochte, one of swimming's biggest stars, has already returned to the United States, his attorney Jeff Ostrow told CNN. Another potential issue highlighted by judge was the behavior of the athletes on arrival at the Olympic Village in the aftermath.
