“That sure doesn’t sound like he was down and defenseless. But it begs the question, do you stop shooting when the perp goes down even though he’s still firing?”
As a Texas state trooper once told me “if you have to fire, don’t stop till you’re out of ammo”.
If the fella I shot at was down and just twitching I’d probably let him be.
If he was still waving a weapon or shooting, I go for the “out of ammo” solution.
