Would you like to test your hypothesis? I am sure anyone on here would volunteer to be the driver if you are willing to be in the same position of the Leo but you cannot have a gun. Let's see how fast you can move and see how much damage you take. Willing to back up your position? If you survive with no injuries, I'll give you $100k
Did the shooter get injured here? If not, seems like your hypothesis is already off. Maybe he did, I haven't heard. Looked fine at the end when he holstered his pew pew .
You do not have to 'wait' to get injured before using lethal force.
Graham vs Connor
Tennessee vs Garner
Scott V Harris
Barnes v Felix
Some light reading for you.
Bottom line that will save you a good hour: the SCoTUS has continually ruled in favor giving law enforcement extremely wide latitude in applying lethal force.
No matter the court make up.
You don't have to like it. You just have to understand it.
