It would be all but impossible to try and throw the 'self defense' flag, wouldn't it? Even with a 'make my day' law, he had no responsibility to flee himself or try to avoid danger, right? That condition doesn't even come close. The guy jumped out and went after his attacker. Is that covered under that law?
The most damning thing, imo, is the later actions. He broke cover when the attack was over, fired into traffic in attempting to backshoot his attacker who was fleeing the scene at high acceleration.
A cop who did that would almost certainly burn for that, wouldn't he?
