BTW if he is 'pursuing' how in hell could she run over him?

You're either being purposefully obtuse or clueless. Did you see the video of the scene yesterday. Cops were trying to surround the moving car from all angles, guns drawn, yelling at the woman to stop the car and get out. And the car was moving the whole time.
Let me make this simple for you. Let's say you're one of the cops on scene, and you and your partners are trying to engage the perp and get her to come out of the vehicle. The car starts to turn and head in your direction. Do you think you or your partners are going to try to defend yourselves by shooting at an engine block that you can't see, and hope you hit it before you get run over? Or are you going to aim at the driver that you can see?
