At 20 seconds they shoot him once and he backs up and drops the bat then turns and walks away (leaving a trail of blood). He is obviously not a threat from this point on, however there are two distinct pop sounds that can be heard after this.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/apr/20/san-leandro-shooting-walmart-police-steven-taylor

The San Leandro police chief, Jeff Tudor, said in an interview that the “pop” heard on the video after Taylor was already on the ground came from a Taser, and that it was too early to speculate whether that shot had hit Taylor or whether it was justified and in line with department policy.”

Even if the above were true, that leaves the other pop sound heard just before that to be a completely unnecessary shot on a slowly retreating target in the back.

Shooting a nigger is brave. Tsing him is a faggot move for cowards who are afraid of their own government not letting them enact 2a.

Shooting anyone holding a melee weapon is cowardly....so many other options to diffuse the situation and he went with taking a life. Bet this goof has "you're fucked" tattooed on his upper too

Cry me a river. They followed protocol, "Pretty please drop the bat you poor oppressed victim," That didn't work.

What if he Negan'd their brains out, is it still cowardly to shoot? LMAO, go line up for food stamps you dumb brainwashed cow.

HA! Or, I dunno, maybe use a taser? He's firing a ballistic weapon in the middle of a packed grocery mart. It's stupid and cowardly. Grow up and get your balls snipped so we don't have to deal with anymore of your idiotic gene pool

Because it's protocol to use deadly force against deadly force. Tasers are unreliable.
