If I'm the guy in the truck, I think I'd call 911 and then shoot rather than the reverse.

Personally I would have called 911 and then pulled the gun and told them to back off. I'm not really buying this guy's self-defense story.

How many crimes does 911 stop?

I think the cops would have found a badly beaten or dead victim

I am. The guy charged with murder is one bad dude. It's a shame he didn't die too.

Nice thought! But I am responsible for my protection the police are responsible for taking the report.

I would have tossed the phone to the wife, simultaneously unholserting the weapon, she can call 911.

If no one is with me, weapon comes out first.

Do you assume everyone in the US is carrying a cell phone with them at all times? Did it occur to you that there are still millions of people that don't have one?

I for one carried a Glock long before I carried a cell phone.
