    I think it’s more accurate to say he hit the car. He basically throws his upper body onto the hood before impact. Or at least that’s how it appears, it’s very grainy.

      He lunges towards it but the only ever gets his hands on it. This is how he “justifies” shooting - he “made contact” with the vehicle

        To be honest I can’t really even tell from the footage, it’s too grainy. The only reason I feel somewhat confident he puts his body on the car is the footage shows his upper body leaning towards the vehicle at such an angle I can’t see how we would remain upright without support. But yeah it’s totally possible it’s just his hands/arms bracing him. But this explains how his feet can be clear in the closer video where he’s obscured by the other criminal but his body so can be close in the other angles.
