[QUOTE="oldngray, post: 1798978, member: 45230"] Some states (only a few I think) have Provocative Act Doctrine where the criminal is responsible for everything even if someone else shoots an innocent bystander trying to stop the criminal. A recent example of this occurred on March 3, 2013 in Hayward, California when a drunk driver sped away from a police officer who was trying to stop him. The drunk driver then proceeded to ram his car into the side of the officer's police cruiser. The officer opened fire against him to stop him from doing so and inadvertently killed the driver's friend, a passenger who was sitting in the front seat. Under the provocative act doctrine, the drunk driver was charged with murder in the killing of his friend.
