SEATTLE — A Tukwila man is facing charges after prosecutors say he attacked his neighbor and dangled his baby from a balcony.
The Seattle Times reports 28-year-old Ifeanyi Chiegbu was charged Monday with attempted rape and reckless endangerment. He is being jailed on $250,000 bail.
Police responded to the suspect’s apartment complex Sunday to a report that he had been yelling and kicking walls.
According to court documents, officers found Chiegbu naked on top of a woman in her apartment. Chiegbu’s wife allegedly came in and starting fighting with officers while Chiegbu ran back to his apartment.
The documents say the suspect then dangled his daughter off the balcony during a standoff with officers.
Chiegbu eventually went inside, where officers used Tasers to subdue him.
The baby appeared to be uninjured.
