Eminem protege Obie Trice was shot and wounded early today while driving on a freeway, police said.

Trice, a Detroit native, was on the Lodge Freeway at about 1.10am when his vehicle was shot at by someone in another car, Michigan State Police Sergeant Mario Gonzales said.

Trice managed to continue driving and exited the freeway in the suburb of Southfield, where his girlfriend, who was also in the vehicle, flagged down police, Gonzales said. The girlfriend was not wounded.

The rapper was taken to a hospital and was listed in good condition, Gonzales said.
