I read up on it a little and from what I read the man was pulled over for a driving violation. That is why he was being questioned by the cop. I am not sure how much it had escalated between the time he was pulled over until the video started, which is something that will be crucial during the trial.
Even if the suspect had punched the cop's two front teeth out when he go out of his car, as soon as he turned around and began to run away unarmed he was no longer an eminent threat and was off-limits for the use of deadly force.
