Nutall was shot several times outside a nearby apartment a short time later. He has been charged with multiple felonies, including assault with a firearm, criminal threats, child endangerment and being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm, police said. He has pleaded not guilty.
The lawsuit... claims Officer Robert Gladysz 'unreasonably and unjustifiably' discharged his weapon though Nutall never posed a 'credible threat of violence,' leaving him with injuries that limit his ability to move his legs.
'It's a bad shooting. His back was turned to the officer. There was clearly no gun,' attorney Douglas Hopson said, adding 'there's too many facts... that should have made it clear that Nutall was not armed.'
Hopson said Nutall went to the apartment because he feared for his child's safety, declining to elaborate. 'He's there to get his child, because he, in his mind, believes his child is in danger,' he said.
