Gillette man accused of running over ex-girlfriend with pic…

Car Crash Gillette Wyoming in Gillette, Wyoming: A Gillette woman was struck by her ex-boyfriend's pickup truck in a parking lot early Friday morning after he allegedly backed up, turned the wheels toward her, and accelerated into her, running over her right knee before driving away. The woman screamed, clutched her leg, and suffered seizure-like convulsions before being transported by ambulance to a hospital. Police identified the suspect as Kristopher Paxton, who initially denied hitting her but later told detectives the collision could have been a moment of black-out rage after viewing surveillance video. Officers noted the smell of alcohol on him and bloodshot, watery eyes, though police said they did not develop probable cause to arrest him for DUI.
