Mobile County Sheriff's deputies identified Kyle Patton, 23, as the man accused of shooting a woman and her 2-year old son during a robbery Wednesday night in Mount Vernon.

Mobile County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman told AL.com after the incident, the mother and her child suffer from non-life threatening injuries.

The robbery took place around 5:40 p.m. on the 2300 block of Red Fox Road.

The victim engaged in a struggle with the suspect during the home invasion, attempting to disarm the intruder of a semi-automatic handgun.

In the struggle, the suspect allegedly fired one shot at the woman, striking her and her 2-year old.

Mt. Vernon Police, Citronelle Police, Creola Police, Mobile County Sheriff's deputes and U.S. Marshals began canvassing the area for the suspect, who was said to be driving a late model Chevrolet Camaro.

Citronelle Police stopped the vehicle and detained two males, who were inside. However, further investigation of the matter led authorities to search for Patton.

After suspending their search around 10:30 p.m., County Sheriff's K9 unit and U.S. Marshal's were able to arrest Patton.

Patton was taken to a nearby medical facility for bite injuries he sustained while attempting to evade K9.

Patton is charged with two counts of first-degree assault, first-degree burgalry and probation revocation.

Mobile County Sheriff's Office is leading this ongoing investigation.
