The DEA believed they were trying to escape and they blocked the road with their vehicles. The young lady at this point accelerated and headed towards one of the agents. This agent fired 2 rounds at the vehicle striking the front windshield.
Snip...From the video of the scene this shoot was at very close range so I can believe the agents thought they didn't have time to avoid the oncoming car and so they fired in self-defense.
Pretty extensive analysis from just a video of the scene. Did someone shoot a live feed of this for you to see all of what you saw?
Hmmmm...at "very close range". Were the vehicles "sandwiching the car" in the video you saw or were the vehicles "up the street" blocking the road?

Sorry it took me a few to get back to ya. In the video it appeared to me as though the cars in the front and back were within 10 to 15 feet of the alleged drug vehicle.
