Shocking video has been released showing a North Carolina Department of Transportation worker attempting to use a pistol to prevent the theft of his work truck.

He fires several rounds at the thief, who manages to drive the truck away backwards.

Unfortunately, the thief then drives the truck back to the scene of conflict, running down and killing the NC DOT worker.

The thief has now been charged with murder, larceny of a vehicle, and other crimes--but, of course, the NC DOT worker remains dead.

What went wrong in this tragic scenario? What were the legal errors, if any? What were the tactical errors, if any?
