FREMONT COUNTY, COLO. -- Fremont County Sheriff's deputies have arrested a woman for harassment after a man was found dead in a motor home Sunday evening.

According to deputies, a 53-year-old man died around 6 p.m. after suffering what appeared to be a gunshot wound to the head. Witnesses said they heard the man and 45-year-old Valorie Rice arguing before he died.

Deputies said the call came in saying the man had shot himself, and they found a gun next to his body when they arrived.
