[QUOTE="soberups, post: 920297, member: 14668"] It looks to me like the DHL driver was using that force which he felt was necessary to effect a citizens arrest on a fleeing felon who had already attempted to murder a police officer by running over him with his car. The only weapon he had available to him was his truck, and he used it successfully. Imagine the consequences of that Taurus hitting a minivan with a family in it at high speed instead of a big, heavy delivery vehicle. Not a pleasant thought. Priority #1 in a situation like that is to disable the fleeing vehicle by any means necessary, thereby avoiding a potentially life-threatening high speed pursuit on a busy road. Or maybe the DHL driver was simply trying to avoid the serving van and wound up hitting the bad guys car by mistake. Either way, he did not ask to be put in that situation, he didnt cause it, he couldnt control it, and he certainly should not lose his job due to the actions of a lunatic criminal. [/QUOTE]
