  • Now I wasn’t there, and I suspect OP wasn’t either, but the narrative that he was sitting in his own car is disputed (as far as I know) and he may in fact have been using said car to try and ram police vehicles and officer who were operating a blockade to stop him.

    Again, I wasn’t there and may be the cover story. But given the current climate around police shooting I would be surprised if the shot was a decision that was taken lightly.
