DRIVER ROBBY GORDON’S DAD, STEPMOM FOUND DEAD
The father of race car driver Robby Gordon and his wife were found dead at their Southern California home Wednesday, according to the Orange County coroner. What led to the deaths of Bob Gordon, 68, and Sharon Gordon, 57, “had not been ruled one way or another,” Orange County Supervising Deputy Coroner Kelly Keyes told USA TODAY Sports. Keyes said autopsies were scheduled to be conducted Thursday. “I’m so sad, and I can’t believe it,” Gordon told reporters at the home where the bodies were found. Police in Orange, Calif., received a 911 call from a neighbor at 5 p.m. Wednesday that reported there were two bodies inside the Gordon’s residence, Orange police Lt.
Fred Lopez said in a statement sent to USA TODAY Sports. Officers located a rifle inside the home, Lopez said. Robby Gordon, 47, is a former NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver and owner.
