Why?
WOW, they just executed that guy. His car was stopped. He was surrounded. There was no need to kill the guy. It was an EXECUTION. Do the police have the power to carry out executions without an arrest, trial, and conviction? Apparently they do. Even if this guy was a murderer, which I think he was, we still can’t have the police going around killing people.

I do not agree. It was probably a mistake, rather than an execution. Perhaps even an understandable mistake. It often goes down like this:
The information the police have is that they have a dangerous guy who has just murdered someone.
They are yelling at him to show his hands, get out of the car. Maybe they are giving conflicting commands.
He makes a move to a) grab a gun b) undo a seatbelt.
Everyone is on the edge of shooting because this is a very dangerous guy. Someone pulls the trigger because they think he is going for a gun.
Every Police officer there joins in.
It is the coverup that gets you.
An execution would have been if they pulled the guy out of the car, put a gun to the back of his head, and blew his brains out with one shot.
