As Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte performed on tonight's premiere of Dancing With the Stars, two protestors rushed the stage, causing a huge commotion, and were eventually detained by the LAPD. The police department said in a statement: "LAPD was called to the studio where we took over the investigation and transported the two individuals back to the station for booking and processing."

Lochte and his partner, Cheryl Burke, were awaiting the judges' comments after their performance, when two men, wearing anti-Lochte t-shirts, jumped on stage in an effort to attack the swimmer. Security quickly apprehended the men and Lochte went untouched.

The show's host, Tom Bergeron, interviewed Lochte after the incident and the swimming star said, "I'm doing good. So many feelings are going through my head right now. A little hurt. I came out here and I wanted to do something I was completely uncomfortable with, and I did."

In fact, there was an entire row of anti-Lochte protestors, wearing the same shirts, who were eventually kicked out of the studio before taping continued.

Cheryl commented: "I'm hurt for Ryan," Cheryl told Tom after the commercial break. "He's sweet, he's kind. He's working his butt off. I hope people give him a chance."
