Look up Tennessee v. Garner, 471 U.S. 1 (1985)[/i

[i]Law enforcement officers pursuing an unarmed suspect may use deadly force to prevent escape only if the officer has probable cause to believe that the suspect poses a significant threat of death or serious physical injury to the officer or others.

ocho, the first issue in this case is whether the guy was, in fact, fleeing at the time he was killed, or whether he was, as some have said, charging at Wilson. Two way different scenarios, each of which puts the case on a different side of Garner.
