At 12:50 p.m. on May 31, according to Lt. Tim Boumeester of Wyoming Highway Patrol, a Gillette resident and her young children were traveling westbound on Interstate 90 near mile post 160 when their 1989 Chevrolet motor-home began to lose mechanical power and the gauge showed an increase in engine temperature. Soon thereafter, smoke began billowing from the engine compartment. Sander pulled onto the emergency shoulder, exited the vehicle and called for assistance. Within moments, the automobile was engulfed in flames. There were no citations or injuries due to this incident.
