PARIS — The head of the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency tightened security within his organization after receiving several death threats during his investigation of Lance Armstrong.In an interview published Monday in French sports daily L'Equipe, USADA chief executive Travis Tygart said he has felt obliged to take stronger security measures since opening investigations into Armstrong and members of the former U.S. Postal team."The Armstrong affair has prompted death threats against me. I received three of them, individual initiatives, in my opinion. Once again, the FBI dealt with that," Tygart was quoted as saying in L'Equipe's interview from USADA offices in Colorado Springs, Colorado, adding that he had previously received a similar threat.
