Evansville Police responded to a domestic disturbance involving a firearm Sunday night on Tiffany Court.
A call to 9-1-1 reported that the suspect was drunk and was possibly in the process of retrieving a gun.
Shortly after the front door opened a young child ran out, but then ran back inside.
The mother was sitting on the ground holding a three year old while the suspect stood behind her.
The man then aimed the firearm at police.
One officer discharged one round from his duty weapon striking the offender.
He was taken to the hospital.
None of the officers were hurt during the incident.
