An apparent member of the Hell’s Angels, arrested on extortion charges earlier this week, is also a former Olympian.

Ken LeBlanc competed for Canada at four Olympics; the last was in Salt Lake City in 2002.

This is not LeBlanc’s first brush with the law; he spent time behind bars in the 1990’s.

LeBlanc made a court appearance Tuesday, and is awaiting a bail hearing on the latest charges.
