Baby injured in HPD shooting 'fighting for his life,' mother says

Daisha Smalls had just finished pumping gas at a Chevron station in southwest Houston when an armed man ran up and demanded she get out of the driver’s seat.
The 19-year-old refused to leave her car, where her 1-year-old son Legend Smalls sat tucked in his car seat. She screamed what any mother would: “My baby’s in the back seat.”
The man, a robbery suspect fleeing authorities, jumped in her lap and tried to put the car in gear, she said. Smalls saw flashing blue-and-red lights and heard sirens as officers surrounded her car. Then, before she knew what happened, the shooting started.
A Houston police officer identified as E. Garza opened fire at the sedan, killing the man who sat on top of Smalls and putting a bullet in the baby’s head.
