The man, 37, drove a short distance before he crashed into a parked vehicle." Maybe because this happened at night it was justified? Kel
There are so few relevant details yet, but that did catch my eye as well. What helps his cause right now is the fact that he did shoot through the windshield, so the car was coming at him. If they can demonstrate that he feared that the man was using the vehicle as a weapon, it could make self-defense much easier to swallow.
