Case by case basis. In general, you would be correct.
In this instance, they knew everything they needed to know. He got into an argument with his dad and drove away. They knew exactly who the kid was, where he lived, its not like this kid was getting away with taking the truck.
But yeah, lets force the issue, endanger lives, and ultimately kill this kid because we want to handle it now, and not in a couple hours.
It was twice suggested to back off, by police personnel. You act as if backing off and picking him up later is the most ridiculous thing ever.
Yeah, lets just kill him.
