Buzz, give me a break.
How many people drive up to someone's driveway, then park the car and throw thier keys in the glovebox?
It also doesn't matter if no weapon was found in the glove box. If the shootee was dumb enough to make a threatening gesture he goes away in a pine box. If he was doing something legitimate he should have vocalized what he was doing.
I would be willing to bet the shootee had a rap sheet a mile long or else should have been on meds in a hospital.
Edited to add after further thought: If I have someone at gunpoint and tell them to back away and drop their gun, there are only two motions they should do BACK AWAY and DROP THEIR WEAPON. If they come towards me or raise their weapon, they will get shot.
Since the guy in the car was not reaching for the gearshifter, it is pretty safe to guess his plan wasn't to drive away.
