I am not a cinematographer. I did my best to capture a shot that showed the cop being struck. Rather than wild seat of your pants guesswork why not watch the video if accuracy matters to you?,
I watched the video in high resolution, slow motion and enlarged. It appeared the officer was NOT in front of the car when he fired.
One other thing. The officer standing in front of a running vehicle occupied by a suspect, is really a STUPID thing to do!
