During the two-hour premiere of Dancing with the Stars, a protester ran on stage and threw something at Ryan Lochte during his critique.
Lochte was in the middle of his post-dance critique with his partner Cheryl Burke when a woman who was wearing a "No Lochte" shirt ran towards the stage and threw something at him.
From what I'm hearing, someone rushed stage and threw something in direction of Lochte. They nabbed him but others followed. Yikes. #DWTS

ABC went to commercial while security escorted the woman out.
Part of the incident can be seen from a video that was shared on Twitter.

Following his incident in Rio that turned out to be false Lochte has come under fire, facing charges from Rio police and losing endorsements with major companies.
