The policeman could legitimately fear he was reaching for a gun in the car. As long as he was moving, he might locate a gun, turn and fire at the policeman. It was reasonable for him to keep firing until he stopped moving.

I don't think the police were wrong. They didn't know what he was reaching for...the criminal was in the wrong in all ways.
I agree. He was digging under the driver's seat and they eventually found a knife there. The "new" norm is that blacks are never, under any circumstances allowed to be shot.
