I happen to know that the rules involving firearms in these kinds of situations.
You can only shoot the person if they are in direct threat toward someones life.
A good example is if a guy has a bomb you can shoot him. As soon as he throws it he is no longer the threat and you should deal with the bomb instead and not shoot the man.
Makes some sense actually.
I believe a kid running then opening a shed door does not fall into "endangering a life" so this cop is unbelievably out of line. Know this news story is out he will get fired for sure.
This is why the British police don't have guns on them at all times.
