A Stanford University swimmer who raced in the 2012 US Olympic trials was charged with raping an intoxicated, unconscious woman last week on the school’s campus, prosecutors said Wednesday.

Brock Allen Turner, 19, an Ohio native, faces five felony counts punishable by up to 10 years in prison following his arrest on Jan. 18, according to the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office.
Two students on bicycles witnessed the alleged assault near campus fraternity houses and tackled Turner after a chase, while a third student assisted the woman and called campus police, the DA’s office said.
