As far as I am aware, Police will never shoot to injure. If you are firing your weapon, the intent is to kill. I have to believe that the moment the first shot was fired, the intent to kill was there. And because of that, I don't have a problem with the number of shots fired since the decision was made by this particular Officer to terminate the suspect. Whether that determination is correct or not is the issue I see. Maybe i'm just splitting hairs here and it's all wrapped up in the same issue.
