Did the guy do something silly that made the policeman shoot, is an unanswered question.

I saw this in the Wikipedia article

But witnesses claimed the driver ignored police requests to give himself up and when he attempted to ram his way out of the roadblock, officers opened fire.

Dunno how the situation actually went down though
