Former U.S. swimmer and Olympic gold medalist Klete Keller is facing criminal charges after law enforcement officers identified him as one of the people who illegally entered the U.S. Capitol during a riot last week.
According to court documents filed in U.S. District Court on Wednesday, the 38-year-old Keller has been charged with obstructing law enforcement, knowingly entering or remaining in a restricted building and violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds.
An FBI agent wrote in a criminal complaint that he was able to identify Keller, who is 6-foot-6, in part because of his height.
