"Floyd Landis' Father-In-Law Found Dead in North Park

"The father-in-law of Floyd Landis is dead, from an apparent
self-inflicted gun shot wound. David Witt was found slumped over in his
car in a parking garage in North Park Wednesday. He was 57 years-old.

" Witt lived in La Mesa and owned a restaurant in North Park named
Hawthorns, where a lot of cycling memorabilia adorned the walls, much
of it having to do with Landis.

"Landis and Witt were best friends. They raced together, they were
best men at each others weddings, and Witt introduced Landis to his
step-daughter Amber, whom Landis went on to marry.

"This sad news comes just days after the cycling team Landis was on
announced they'd be shutting down at the end of the season. Phonak
owner Andy Rihs said that he has been unable to find a buyer for his
team since Landis, this year's Tour de France champion, was busted for
doping."


My sincerest condolences to family and friends. This sucks.
