If I was that cop I wouldn't have told the man to step back towards my car to begin with, he should've told him to get back in his vehicle right off, then when he started dancing around I would've assumed he was crazy or drunk as hell and made him get on the ground but I wouldn't have let him back near his own vehicle under any circumstance.
I would've fired one warning shot into the guys leg when he was leaning/digging in his vehicle and when I saw the gun it would've been game over for that old man....3 to the skull.
And then finished the day off with some newspaper interviews and a ton of paperwork, but still had my full health.
