Assault suspect sues California cop who shot him while holding baby

A man accused of threatening his ex-girlfriend with a gun then taking off with their infant is suing the city of San Diego and the police officer who shot him as he was holding the baby.

Officer Robert Gladysz shot and wounded Steffon Nutall, 29, late the night of May 19 in an encounter outside a Chollas View apartment complex. The 11-month-old girl Nutall was holding at the time was not struck.

Police had gone looking for Nutall after his ex-girlfriend called 911 as he allegedly threatened her.
