SOLANO COUNTY, CA – A 2-year-old child was shot early Sunday in a home in Suisun City, and police are now looking for a person of interest who may have a connection to an officer-involved shooting in Vallejo that occurred last night.

The shooting was reported just before 3:30 a.m. in a home in the 1000 block of Canary Court, according to police.

The child was taken to a hospital and is listed in critical condition with a gunshot wound.

Several people were in the home at the time of the shooting including a person of interest who left before officers arrived.

The shooting at this point appears to have been accidental and self-inflicted but remains under investigation, police said.

Suisun City police plan to hold a joint press conference with Vallejo police at 10:30 a.m. to discuss a development in the officer-involved shooting.

That incident occurred around 8:50 p.m. Sunday, when a suspect allegedly pointed an assault-type weapon at police officers in a Vallejo Starbucks.

The man manipulated the gun as if it had malfunctioned and then fled when officers drew their guns.

The man was shot after a foot pursuit in which police said he continued to manipulate the gun and was taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries.

Neither officer was injured.
