Australia team won’t move into ‘unfinished’ Athletes Village (Yahoo Sports)

Australian athletes will not move into their rooms at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics until serious plumbing, electrical and cleaning problems are fixed, with the troubled South American games opening in under two weeks. Kitty Chiller, the head of the Australian delegation, said in a statement Sunday that team members ”will not move into our allocated building” at the Athletes Village. The International Olympic Committee and local organizers held emergency talks Sunday, but did not reply immediately to emails from The Associated Press.
