The presence of 4 officers and a helicopter means there has to be more to this story...

Yep. The crooked media’s narrative is that he had his hands up and he was unarmed. I doubt the police knew he was unarmed, and it’s questionable as to whether his right hand was up when he was shot.
The judicial standard is the totality of the circumstances must be considered, which we simply don’t know. I hope people don’t fall for the media’s narrative.
The fact that there wasn’t a weapon in the car doesn’t affect the fact that he was acting like there was. We may not have seen the final furtive movement (which may have been triggered by the taser firing), but his behavior up to that point raises serious suspicions of intent & ability.
He had the ability to get a gun if there was one (no indication of whether there was or wasn’t) by just reaching in the car,
he had the opportunity to get a gun (...) within arm’s reach, and
he was exuded jeopardy by confident action while under lethal threat.
May have been a bad shoot, strictly speaking, but he lured the police into it.
