Not arguing that. Clearly, if the assailant was fleeing, there is no justification for lethal force. But if the assailant was attempting to use the victim's car as a weapon against him(victim runs out and attempts to stop robber from leaving in his car(a bad idea, but it happens all the time), and the robber tries to back over him)? We don't have all the information to properly evaluate this particular situation.
