Officers and paramedics arrived within minutes and determined a bicyclist had been struck by a vehicle. The bicyclist was pronounced dead at the scene. The investigation revealed that a silver 2002 Porsche was traveling westbound on Hovley Lane East just west of Corporate Way when it struck the bicyclist.

The Porsche was being driven by Thomas Karl Doczi, age 60 of Rancho Mirage. Alcohol may have been a factor in this collision. Doczi was booked into the jail in the city of Indio for vehicular manslaughter.

The man who was drunk driving when he killed a father of four was sentenced to five years in prison, the Cobb County District Attorney said Wednesday.

Kenneth Lee Chitwood, 49, of Acworth, was ordered to spend the rest of his 15-year sentence on probation for killing James Peyton Underwood on Feb. 22.

“The court does not find his story plausible or believable,” the judge said.
