no, but the man used no force against them, thus they should remain restrained themselves. I work with cops, they are in control of their own behavior, this cop was not. people panic and run for all kinds of reasons. does not mean they should die as a result. this man might as well have, he has no life at all now. and it was the result of the cop’s actions.
Usually because they don't want to be caught! And why do they not want to be caught? Because they are criminals!
