Australian Paralympian Robbed at Gunpoint in Rio

Two members of Australia's Paralympic team have been robbed at gunpoint on the streets of Rio de Janeiro, raising concerns about the security arrangements for athletes ahead of the Games there this summer.

The Australian Paralympic Committee said in a statement that Liesl Tesch, who is on both the sailing and basketball teams, and team physiotherapist Sarah Ross were riding bikes near their hotel on Sunday when two men confronted them and asked for money.
