“The witness said he looked to reach for the gun to remove it”
Look, I feel sorry for this guy, it doesn’t seem like he was a criminal, but that was a dumb move.
If there was a second volley while he was down on the ground like the 1st witness said, then I hope the cops are jailed, but I don’t think they will be.

On another thread the witnesses heard various things. “Get down” from one cop and “Drop the gun” from another. Of course if the gun was in the holster, as the witnesses say, he would have to reach for the gun first.
Several Freeper’s commented that the thing to do in that case is to keep your hands in the air and tell the cops the gun is on you right hip and let them get it. And as an earlier freeper commented - sounds like this stuff needs to be practiced by those that carry. In all the confusion with three cops yelling different things, pointing guns at you, probably wondering if they are really talking to YOU (Me? What did I do wrong?) it would be easy to be confused on what to do in the stress of the moment.
