Police investigators closed off an area around the intersection of Erbes Road and Sunset Hills Boulevard in Thousand Oaks Tuesday morning after a woman may have shot and killed herself.

Police would not say definitively that the shooting was a suicide, noting it was still under investigation.

The woman was found in an outdoor area with a gun nearby about 11 a.m.

Investigators with the Ventura County Medical Examiner's Office are continuing the investigation but said no further information would be released Tuesday.
