    SAN DIEGO (KUSI) ? KUSI News is sad to report that late Wednesday night, that longtime KUSI anchor and reporter David Davis was killed in a fatal traffic accident.

    He is survived by his two children and his wife Staci Ortiz-Davis, who has appeared alongside David many times here at KUSI News.

    David Davis joined the KUSI News team in January 2003, he retired just a few months ago.

    He died in a traffic accident near Dallas, while on a cross-country road trip.

    He graduated from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville with a degree in Communications, and was a huge Tennessee Volunteer fan. Davis anchored in four states across America.

    He received many awards for his work, including spot news coverage of the Jeffrey Dahmer capture, and week-long 9/11 reports from New York.

    We pass along our condolences to the Davis family and all those he touched here in San Diego.

    He was best known for anchoring the news in San Diego and Wisconsin according to the reports.

    Former WISN-TV (Channel 12) news anchor David Davis was killed in a crash outside Dallas Wednesday, according to multiple media reports.

    Davis had been a reporter and anchor at WISN-TV from 1988 to 2002. After his contract ended at the Milwaukee station, he joined KUSI-TV in San Diego in January 2003. He worked there until his retirement earlier this year.

    Before coming to Milwaukee, Davis had worked at stations in Grand Junction, Colo., and Las Vegas.

    According to stories posted on WISN's website Thursday, Davis had been in Milwaukee two weeks ago to visit old friends and take part in Harley-Davidson's 115th anniversary celebration — part of a cross-country motorcycle trek he'd begun on his Harley in August.

    Davis had been posting on Twitter and Instagram during his road trip, including a tweet posted Sept. 4 in Michigan, in which he wrote: "Everyday is a great adventure."
