Understood...but a whole lot of mistakes were made before the shots were fired...and that was only after the pair used their weapon...a 2 ton car aimed at an officer on foot.
I would have emptied my firearm...as lethal force was justified at that point !!
"Police don't know why the pair didn't pull over, but it is believed they panicked."
Why? Maybe because...
"Russell had a criminal record including convictions for receiving stolen property and robbery, while Williams had convictions for drug-related charges and attempted abduction."
Unarmed??? Really???...
"As the chase ended near a school, Russell allegedly rammed a patrol car and drove toward an officer on foot."
