We do, these firearms officers would have only been sent out as the car was linked to a firearms offence, they aren't regular officers. The case is no to determine whether him letting off the one (note only one shot, not clips worth), shot was justified in terms of the threat he perceived to himself and his fellow officers or if he reacted against his training and procedure.
