Again, from VN via the wires, various homes of riders and staff were searched and doping products were found. Ten homes were searched, and the VN version says a trainer was arrested. Over at CN, which will have more details by 10am EDT or so, ten homes were searched in the area of Kortrijk, in western Belgium, and large volumes of doping products were found. Patrick Lefevre gave a 'no comment'. Bram Tankink and Eddy Engels both said they were out training and their homes weren't searched. Tom Boonen is from another region of Belgium and lives in Monaco, so I'm guessing he's not on the suspect list. Hopefully soon we will know who is.
