I thought that it has been established from the witness report that they ran at him, not away from him. I'm glad that he chose not to look at the situation as "not his problem". Good for him for giving sh*t.

You keep talking about clear and present dangers..........does that matter in the case of a fleeing assailant who is commanded by an officer to remain still, don't move, etc. etc.? From watching and reading about these kinds of situations pretty much all the time....I am fairly certain that a police officer is authorized to use that level of force. Also, I want to think that a cop doesn't assume a suspect to be unarmed.....ever.
