At least the shooter said, "Hey they tried to run me over" in an attempt to justify his stupid actions.

You might want to read the story again - the person who called 911 reported that the driver had tried to run the guy down. That wasn't just something that he made up.

You might try and read the story again. It doesn't say the guy that called 911 was an eye witness, it only said he called 911 and made that statement. 911 calls are generally made after the incident occurrs, and *anyone* can make the call, and say or repeat *anything* they've heard after an incident.

This kind of thing happens 5,000 times a day, with people calling in, parroting what they "heard."

For all you know, the 911 caller could have been the shooters brother.

Another citizen called 911 and reported “an undercover officer shooting at someone who tried to run him down,” Myers said.

Ya see what I mean Bob?

Why would anyone think the guy opening up in a supermarket parking lot was an undercover cop?

I'll tell ya why Bob, it's because many times when people call 911, they are just parroting what they heard occurred, and are just passing on bad information.
