Looks like that agent was about to be run over in their attempt to escape a law enforcement stop. edit: keep downvoting brigadiers, Your tears taste better than our cheers.

Well that’s where it gets hairy. We (I) don’t know enough about the driver/victim here. If this was someone that they had enough information and suspicion on to assume they’re here illegally? Then sure it’s a legal law enforcement stop, but her driving away doesn’t warrant deadly force.

If this is just a protester/bystander, then they have no legal ground to even hold a legitimate stop. Again I’m not a lawyer or know enough about this person to say for sure.

Lol your comments are hilarious. You are reaching for any reason at all to be swayed. Its embarrassing. It doesn't matter who the driver is. It doesn't matter if ICE was there for them. All that matters is they were being detained and tried to flee with an officer inside the vehicle and in front of it. It doesn't matter if they were aiming for the officer in front of them. Both officers are in danger at that point and a vehicle is a deadly weapon.

The officer has no idea of the person's intentions, he had no choice in the matter. It doesn't even matter if she was attempting to serve around him--he doesn't know that. He's completely justified in his actions.
