How was he to know if her intent was to flee or cause harm and mow him down? He was faced with a split second decision.
She was turning the steering wheel AWAY from him.
I wasn’t there, but the visibility through most windshields is not great especially in the winter with road salt and grime. What was he supposed to be watching? Her turning the wheel? The tires themselves? The wife exiting the vehicle , yelling and acting unpredictably? All simultaneously? Yeah, right.
A horrible and volatile situation. I hope that there will be scene reconstructions done to clarify the situation. Until then, I can’t be judge and jury (and neither should all the hysterical Tik tokkers and redditors.)
The video from his body cam shows exactly what he saw and it was all of the above...her hands, the wheel turning away, and so on. When there is so much video footage, you don't really need scene reconstruction because everyone can see exactly what happened.
The video can only show so much. Other important factors are the speed the car was moving and how fast she was accelerating. Sounds like she floored the accelerator and that is why more analysis needs to be done.
The Honda pilot has an Event Data Recorder
Unless she had the top trim line.
She was pulling out of a parking spot. I mean he was able to unholster his weapon, aim, and get off accurate head shots.
Drawing from a holster and opening fire takes less than two seconds for a trained LEO on high alert for threats. Being slow on the draw can mean the difference between living or not when you're a LEO, and training reflects that.

Killing the driver of a moving car makes that car even more dangerous now nobody is controlling it. If Ross was scared for his life because of the moving car, killing Good put him, his coworkers, and everybody else on that street in even more danger.
Any response to that?
Watch the video embedded in this story. You can start at 4:40 if you don’t care about the lead up.

You have no idea what anybody would do in that situation.
All these armchair critics, I swear.
I do!
I’m an elementary school teacher who does carpool drop off and pick up duty.
I walk in and out and amongst cars, often large vans, looking out for children, all the time. I walk around “standing” cars (Ie not parked; parents are in the and can drive away at any moment) while I may sometimes walk a child around the car and help them get into their seat.
Cars pulling out out and around other cars with no warning sometimes. Parents are distracted; in a rush. Parents sometimes mouth off to us teachers, for just doing our jobs.
I know the rules- if you are in a street or driving lane of a parking lot, you need to stay alert and stay out of the way of a car.
Until the ice agent decided to pull his gun, the situation was no more dangerous than what I face on a daily basis.
I have no doubt that I would have handled the situation far better than he did. Because I would have just let her drive her car away instead of deliberately stepping in front of a car to try to use the force of my bodily presence to stop the car.
