Your argument was a thoroughly bizarre 'what if' fallacy.
I've watched the video. The police were trying to stop him and he failed to comply, before aggressively maneuvering his vehicle in a way that put officers' lives at risk. You are somehow pinning the blame on the officer for standing in the way of a criminal who is trying to get away!
Do you believe that people should stop for the police, who have clearly identified themselves?
He had a chance to stop, he didn't because he's a hitman for a well-known gang who had recently carried out an attempted execution. Logic would say that he would do anything to get away (including running over plod).
