Okay, lets suppose you are walking down a street. Maybe you just stole an apple from some apple stand. But then again, maybe you didnt. Then some guy - not a cop - pulls up to you with a shotgun.
Im an old guy. I know what I would do. I would freeze, and then I would assess the situation.
But if I were 20, I would probably would behave differently. Id probably panic, and try to get shotgun guy before shotgun guy got me.
Bottom line: Dont go chasing down the street after folks with a shotgun. You are not a cop. Call the real cops.

Thats exactly what the jogger did. And thats exactly why the jogger is dead. Did he deserve to die? No, absolutely not. But he had an arrest record. He lived life like a criminal. And died like one.
Do not forget that the elder McMichael had been a cop for 37 years and was only recently retired.
