"1.Deadly force defined. For the purposes of this section, "deadly force" means force which the actor uses with the purpose of causing, or which the actor should reasonably know creates a substantial risk of causing, death or great bodily harm. The intentional discharge of a firearm, other than a firearm loaded with less lethal munitions and used by a peace officer within the scope of official duties, in the direction of another person, or at a vehicle in which another person is believed to be, constitutes deadly force. "Less lethal munitions" means projectiles which are designed to stun, temporarily incapacitate, or cause temporary discomfort to a person. "Peace officer" has the meaning given in section"

Sec. 609.066 MN Statutes

The debate about this is over. It was a killing. It wasn't a murderer. "(1) Self-Defense. When deadly force reasonably appears to be necessary to protect a protective force officer who reasonably believes himself or herself to be in imminent danger of death or serious bodily harm." https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-10/chapter-X/part-1047/subject-group-ECFR8a339f643c51a41/section-1047.7 Anyone trying to say that they know what was going through the agent's mind is a hyperfeminized lunatic who thinks they can read minds.
