Fremont County Police: Woman hospitalized after shooting herself

Fremont County authorities say a driver is in critical condition after apparently shooting herself while behind the wheel. Officials aren't naming the 33-year-old Kinnear woman. They say she's listed in critical condition in an unspecified medical facility out of state. According to a statement from the Fremont County Sheriff's Office, the woman drove away from a residence on Sunday afternoon after saying she intended to harm herself following a dispute with her boyfriend. A Wyoming state trooper later saw the woman's vehicle veer off of Highway 26 and plow through a fence. The trooper found that the woman had what appears to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound to her head. Authorities aren't sure whether the woman shot herself while driving or possibly after her vehicle left the roadway.
