Ullrich gives DNA sample

By Susan Westemeyer

Jan Ullrich followed through on his promise to deliver a saliva sample for a DNA comparison to blood taken custody in the Operación Puerto investigation. His attorneys announced earlier this week that he was willing to travel to Germany to give a DNA sample, which was actually taken in Konstanz, Switzerland, on the German border.

The sample will be turned over to prosecutors in Bonn, Germany, who must now await arrival of the blood bags from Spain, before the comparison test can be made.
