I mean, the fact he got shot running away demonstrates why people don’t want to risk dealing with cops. If he wasn’t running away, maybe the cop could have suspected he was reaching for a gun when talking to them. Generally, the more time you spend interacting with the police, the higher your chances are of getting shot.

>are always people running from cops over dumb shit instead of just dealing with the shit they did.

That they allegedly did.

Unless you're being lawfully detained you have every right to walk or run away from police. You do not have a duty to speak with police.

Running away from police is not evidence of guilt.
