As I have said previously, If you think a man might shoot you in the back, you can be absolutely certain he will shoot you in the front if you attack him.
However, everyone who has a shred of common sense left would not object to that being described as “stopping” someone.
Well, except for the inconvenient fact that it absolutely did not stop him.

Not everyone that is pulled over by police decides to follow orders and stay put, but nobody objects to calling it a “police stop” anyway. You’re just picking nits.
