SEDALIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

John Fizer, the father of Hannah Fizer, filed a wrongful death lawsuit against deputy Jordan Schutte Wednesday.

The deputy killed the 25-year-old during a traffic stop in June.

The deputy had told investigators that Fizer said she had a gun in the car and she said she was going to shoot him.

Investigators did not find a gun in the car.

In September, the special prosecutor reviewing the case determined the killing was legally justified.
