While I can't speak the nuances of the situation or the dept's exact policies on deadly force, the fact that the guy rammed 2 police cars and was endangering lives certainly should suggest it is the officers who deserve the benefit of any doubt. There wasn't any nuance or doubt - the unarmed perp was shot in the back and killed. The police superintendent, with 30 years experience, said there appeared to be a violation of police procedure and pulled the involved officers from duty. End of subject. Your bias is noted.

Only one of the three officers was reported involved in the fatal shooting behind a building, and you don’t know what happened there. Your ignorance, bias, and hostility toward the police is duly noted.

I’m sorry to see we still have a few cop-haters like you here.

In Texas the police may shoot a “fleeing felon.”

Your bias is noted.He was armed with a stolen automobile that he used to crash into several other automobiles including police cruisers. The dead perp was a deadly menace.
Your numbskullery is duly noted!
