The man, Carlos Gonzalez, 26, called police to alert them that his girlfriend had been “playing with a gun” when it accidentally went off Sunday evening.

Gonzalez then took the couple’s three-month-old infant and dropped the baby off with relatives before fleeing the area.

The victim’s mother, Blanca Garcia, told ABC13 that her daughter was concerned about her safety. She had told her mother that Gonzalez had threatened to kill her if she left him.

Garcia is speaking out to draw attention to domestic violence.
