How else does someone sprint forward? By leaning back?

He also could have been falling forward when shot in the top of the head. The autopsy just adds ammo to both sides
The head is only down for a bit when the acceleration is enough to offset the centre of gravity not being over the feet, otherwise even Olympic sprinters run most of the race vertically.

And it's not like he's going to go into a sprinter's stance with blocks to charge a cop.

But I'd agree, the top of the head could be a lucky shot right at the start, but could also be a lucky shot as he's falling from being shot elsewhere. The angle of the body shots would be relevant, if the head shot was first then he's going to fall forward from an already forward lean.
