I don't think he "jumped a cop". The cop pulled up and accosted them from his patrol car. The guy mouthed off back at the cop and ran up to the window and according to the news reports tried to pull the cop out the window.
The cop's version is that the guy was going for his weapon (which if it were in the holster and this big guy is reaching in an open window seems kinda difficult to do).
But apparently the cop shot him while still in the car on the first shot.
The whole thing's fucked up.
Now, if a person walked up behind a cop and actually "jumped" him, put the beat down on him and grabbed the gun...yeah, he's probably gonna get shot.
Should he be shot 6 times with two of them straight to the head?
I guess...if it's a mob hit on the Sopranos.
But a trained police officer doing that? Isn't that the definition of "overkill" (literally)
