I am not questioning the actions (at this time), but your

In and of itself, no, but what if the cops had clearly identified
themselves, had clearly ordered him specifically to stop and he continued to
run onto a crowded train.

Right after a series of bomb blasts on crowded trains.

It's easy to armchair quarterback. Were the cops right? Dunno, but with
what I've seen so far, it looks like a justified shooting.

I was surprised to hear of armed cops in London, though. I was under the
impression they were not issued firearms.
