Olympic Gold Medalist Klete Keller Indicted on 7 Charges After Capitol Breach

Swimmer Klete Keller, who competed for the United States in three different Olympics, was reportedly indicted on seven charges for his role in the events of Jan. 6 when a pro-Donald Trump mob violently stormed the Capitol in a deadly attack.

Rebecca Rosenberg of the New York Post reported the news Thursday, noting Keller faces counts of obstruction, remaining in a restricted building, civil disorder, disorderly and disruptive conduct, disorderly conduct in a Capitol Building, and impeding the passage through the Capitol grounds.

Rosenberg explained the swimmer was at first charged with three counts but now faces additional charges.
