Needs more information, which obviously will come out after the trial.
@Syldon
Here's some from a more detailed article:
I'd love to know what "recently linked to a firearms incident" actually means, especially given that it seems to have been flagged by an automated system and that "firearms incident" was seen as justification to ram a car off the road and then shoot the occupant in the back before any actual threat was verified.
According to OP's article it had been used in a shooting. Still not really an excuse to kill its occupant though.
What's your source for these claims?
Comment above cites more ofbthe article claiming he was trying to ram through a roadblock, and his family took a step back from public protests after they were shown footage of the incident
The article, where they say the cops rammed him off the road, that he was shot in the back of the head and that the subsequent investigation found no weapons
The one where they say he tried to ram his way out a police encirclement
