Just watched video, no way in hell he should have shot the guy. The guy running has about a 10 second 40 time, that cop could have easily run him down. No way was that shooting justifiable.
That being said, in other situations such as car chases etc., I would 100% support the criminal being killed before they harm someone innocent. In this situation, the guy was going nowhere fast, and the cop had his identity. Not to mention there was another cop right there close by.
