Teen critical after wreck leads to suicide attempt

An 18-year-old Maryland teen remained in critical but stable condition Sunday afternoon, after he apparently shot himself after being involved in a fatal crash in Frederick County that killed a friend. Authorities were called to a crash site in Thurmont just before 2 a.m. Saturday and found the body of Brandon E. Herbert in the road. It appeared the 18-year-old had been killed in a crash but no vehicle was nearby, according to the Frederick County Sheriff’s Office. Investigators learned he had been with a friend, Seth B. Fisher. At Fisher’s home, authorities said they found a damaged Toyota truck. Inside the home, they found Fisher with what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. – Kytja Weir
