Friends & Family Mourn Death Of CA Father That Fell To Death After Hitting Deer In Bonita

Martin Lapisch has been identified as the Chula Vista man that fell to his death in the Bonita area Tuesday morning after striking a deer on California Route 125.

Lapisch, 44, was a husband and father of a 15-month-old baby, say friends. He was a German immigrant who became a U.S. citizen in 2003, friends told local media.

The CHP say they received a call of a car striking a deer just before 4:45 a.m. The vehicle reportedly then stalled on northbound CA-125 just before the transition to state Route 54. Jio said responding officers and fire crews arrived to find the car in the No. 2 lane abandoned with the dead deer in front of it. source

According to Jio, fire crews looked down from the freeway and saw a man in the ravine below. Lapisch was declared dead at the scene.
