Oronsaye said he wasn't convinced the shooter acted properly. "Some people don't actually know how to use guns," he said. "They go to firing ranges, but it's not the same as a bullet going into someone's body, it's not the same as a bullet going into flesh. They should be able to wound first, kill next. He didn't deserve to get shot multiple times."
Shoot to wound? When they announce a robbery with a gun in their hand? A gun that they believed looked realistic enough for a successful hold-up? Riiight.

Any firearms instructor worth his salt will tell you that if you're shooting to wound, it likely isn't a justified shooting.
Center mass every time and keep firing till the threat is gone.

You can’t shoot to wound. Guys have been shot in the skull or chest in combat and lived, others shot in the leg or arm have died in a few minutes, if it hits a main artery or vein (bleed out).
You can never tell. When you shoot someone, it’s always a kill shot. If the shot person lives, they’re lucky.
