1. Have you ever fired a weapon in your life?
2. Try shooting a target that is 6.5 inches across, moving and 12 to 15 feet away.
3. Add into that the adrenalin rush and see how you do. ( simulate it by running around a city block and shooting )
4. add in the known info that the guy is considered dangerous and with a drug background.
Im not saying they were justified as a taser would most likely have worked but wow. People just amaze me with the " Shoot him in the leg " idea.
There has been shooting after shooting with marks men involved in spaces of 12 feet distance and no one gets hit.

You're right. I doubt anyone ever thinks about wounding when their life is in danger. "I'll just shoot this guy in the leg". Anyone would blast away until the guy is dead.
The problem is cops who have a very slim tolerance for what they consider to be a life and death situation for themselves.
