News Flash: Thieves Raid Zabriskie's Home During Tour Of California

While Garmin-Slipstream rider David Zabriskie was cleaning up at last week's Tour of California road race, finishing second, thieves were cleaning out his home in Salt Lake City. The Salt Lake Tribune reported today that thieves made off with over $200,000 in merchandise from the former Olympian and Yellow Jersey wearer's home.
