"Ran over", ran into... doesn't matter.
This is not unprecedented, Toddler.
Obama's ICEstapo And Other Law Enforcement Shooting AMERICAN Citizens Who Were
Trying To Run Them Over
During Obama's reign of terror - 2009 to 2015-several notable law enforcement
shootings occurred involving suspects who used their vehicles as weapons
against officers. These incidents often reached the Supreme Court to clarify
when such force is considered legally "reasonable."
Here are specific examples and legal milestones from that time-frame:
Major Legal Cases (2009-2015)
These cases set the precedent for shooting at moving vehicles during that era:
Mullenix v. Luna (2015): The Supreme Court granted qualified immunity to a
Texas state trooper who shot and killed a fleeing suspect from an overpass.
The suspect had threatened to shoot officers and was driving toward another
officer who was manning a spike strip.

Below are documented cases of law enforcement firing on suspects attempting to
ram or run over officers:

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has
been driven effectively insane due to their dislike of Donald Trump, to the
point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the
Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into three distinct phases or
stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The
president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, as if 140 characters were
all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's
vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting solely of
hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from
reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk
opposition from liberals to anything and everything Trump does. If Trump
announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would
suggest he was up to something nefarious, according to the logic of TDS.
There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be
received positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early
2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a punch line for late-
night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first
coined by the late conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer back in 2003.
The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in
otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay -
the very existence of George W. Bush."Message-ID:
