Actually, from the story I read, the vehicle the two women were delivering papers from was approaching one of the homes occupied by an individual on Dorner’s hit list, and being “guarded” by law enforcement. Law enforcement wasn't approaching the vehicle. Were I in the shoes of the officers involved in that incident, what would I do? Use better judgment than to fire upon a vehicle in which I was unable to determine who was within the vehicle, and from which no shots were being fired in my direction. Law enforcement is NOT the military, and should NEVER fire their weapons without first determining an imminent threat does exist.

Exactly. Around here, the police academy teaches candidates to evaluate shoot / don't shoot scenarios with the process of "Ability, Opportunity, & Jeopardy" - a driver in a vehicle does not even meet the first criteria, until that driver demonstrates the intention to use the vehicle as a weapon. Certainly the officers involved in the unjustified shootings should be reevaluated for fitness for duty.
