VERO BEACH, Fla., Sept. 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- A veteran Indian River County Sheriff's deputy, shot by his holstered Sig Sauer P320 semi-automatic service 9mm handgun, has filed a lawsuit in Indian River County against Sig Sauer, alleging his injuries were a result of the gun's potentially deadly design defect that has been known to suddenly fire, without the trigger being pulled. The Plaintiff, Zachary Seldes, of Vero Beach, isn't the first law enforcement officer in the country to suffer catastrophic injuries as a result of the P320's defects. There have been hundreds of reported cases of un-commanded discharges involving the P320, including dozens of trained law enforcement officers. Seldes is represented by Tony Sos and Kyle Morat of Dellecker, Wilson, King, McKenna, Ruffier, & Sos, LLP of Orlando, FL along with associating counsel Jeff Bagnell of Bagnell Law, LLC of Westport, CT. Mr. Bagnell was the first attorney to bring Sig to trial regarding defects in the P320 in Virginia in 2019 and has represented and advised scores of P320 victims over the last seven years.
