Watch the surveillance footage. Brooks resisted arrest. Physically fought two police officers. You can see Brooks on top of the officers SWINGING. He then takes an officers taser. While running he fires the taser at the cop who holds a firearm (cop could easily end up dead in such a situation). The officers life was threatened and he acted within his rights.

Can a taser set off a gun? Or what do you mean?

The officer could have dropped his gun while tased. Brooks could have ran back and stolen the gun. Why would the cop assume different?

Because Brooks was running away and was quite far when the cop shot him.
