In addition to the problems of Olympic Sailing in Rio de Janeire BRA with polluted waters on the race course and the Zika virus, there are now the first cases of criminal acts with sailing team members involved. The Spanish Nacra-17 team with 2008 Olympic Gold medalist in the Tornado multihull, Fernando Echavarri and crew Tara Pacheco as well as their coach, former world champion Santi López-Vázquez, were approached by five people armed with two pistols on their way to breakfast. They were robbed of the electronic devices they were carrying. Danish Nacra-17 and Laser sailors were caught in the vicinity of a gunfight between two local street gangs and had to seek shelter near the Niteroi harbour.
