That video answers my questions. He clearly shot at the officer when he was standing in the middle of the street just before the officer shot him again.

Wonder why Chan 2 cut out the part showing the officer was clearly justified in shooting an armed assailant?

Wonder why the entire video from the dash cam wasn't released? I've watched the body cam video several times and can't tell if the man in the white car ever fired a weapon.
Regardless, whether a gun or something else, you should have a reasonable expectation of police officer shooting you if you show any signs of pointing a weapon at them.
