I’m an european. Gun use in US is simply completely normalized. Even if you say that the law allows shooting him there, why would anyone support that?

Accelerating towards law enforcement is a deadly threat.
If he's willing to threaten them with a deadly weapon, what else is he willing to do?
They executed a dangerous manouver, pointed guns at him, broke his window and shot at him. Yes, the person paniced, but I’m not surprised.
To law enforcement, this seems like a regular thing they do. They should be in control of the situation and be ready to use the appropriate amount of force for the situation. If they escalate things out of the gate like this, I do not think they should then also be allowed to just start shooting under the pretense of being in danger. That’s a risk they knowingly took by taking the actions they took.
You’re saying law enforcement can shoot anyone in the US, as long as they architect situations with the highest level of danger.
