According to the Hopkins County Coroner, the man who investigators believed died as a result of the crash, actually took his own life. An autopsy confirmed the victim died from a single gunshot wound to the head, and that the accident was a result of the shooting.
The incident happened early Saturday morning on I-69, between Dawson Springs and the Pennyrile Parkway.
In order to preserve privacy, the coroner is only identifying the victim as a 30-year-old man from Lexington.
