The only information that should be taken into account at the time he was gunned down, is what he did at that moment to cause the officers to shoot him. Clearly it's shown that the crime he was shot for, was "running". You can try to claim he did this and that before hand but that is all speculative. That is how our laws are supposed to work.. However in this case and many others the police just act as judge, hurry and executioner because they get away with it.
