For all we know the lost LEO's started shouting at an old man with hearing aids and shown a light in his face thus causing him to cover his eyes, they mistook his motion and shot him (happened before at Nevada Costco). Unfortunately we will never know. It is a horror, and an avoidable one.

No fix really. The only thing that could be done (and this would only be an after the fact determination of truth) would be to put a camera on the lapel of every LEO, but I imagine that would be cost prohibitive.
Actually, that is already in the works
