I suppose I came out sounding irresponsible in the above. I apologize. That said, please read the account of that
incident one more time. I'm sure the car that ran into the police vehicle didn't have a plaque of some sort to indicate there was to-be-groom inside. I'm also sure the particular headline made the news quite sensational.
In retrospect, it was an unfortunate event without any question, however, the decision to shoot at a vehicle to neutralize the operator inside which just struck a police vehicle was made in split seconds. The police were looking for five individual who were responsible for a gunfire earlier that struck nearby homes.

I'm not jaded... this does seem like the opening to some hyperbolic crime movie than a real event.

Right now that is the general consensus which is why the event hasn't been assigned with the term "terrorism." As far as I am concerned, it is.
