Rio officials had to open Olympic Stadium with bolt cutters after losing key - The Washington Post

They had misplaced the key.

Security personnel had to find bolt cutters and break the lock before media members and others could access the stadium’s mixed area through the gate. That came after some confusion, as reported by the BBC’s Julia Carneiro, over which entrance people were supposed to use.
