I agree with Joseph20....he was told to stop..instead he starts reaching into his bag while continuing to run. Enough for me. He wasn't deaf, as that is not part of the bipolar illness.

Were you there in the jetway?

If not, how do you know what happened or what was said?

The witnesses in First Class said he was confronted in their section and told to halt and lie on the floor; instead he turned and bolted out the jetway.

As this thing progresses there are certainly conflicting stor ies. I wonder if the actual facts will finally surface. If he was doing what the initial reports said he was doing...then the marshalls had no other choice.

I just can't imagine the shooting of a passenger who was calm and complied with requests from the air marshalls.
