“Well if Shabazz was finger printed when arrested and Obama had the same prints, then Obama was in danger of arrest every time he was fingerprinted.”
I really doubt that Obama has the same prints as some random guy from Kingston, Jamaica.
Under U.S. law the fleeing felon rule was limited to non-lethal force in most cases by Tennessee v. Garner, 471 U.S. 1 (1985). The justices held that deadly force “may not be used unless necessary to prevent the escape and the officer has probable cause to believe that the suspect poses a significant threat of death or serious physical injury to the officer or others.”
Fleeing felons may be followed into places not open to the public without a warrant if the officer is in “hot pursuit.” See Warden, Md. Penitentiary v. Hayden (1967), [2] 87 S.Ct. 1642, 18 L.Ed.2d 782.
Also, Interstate Flight is a felony against Federal Law.
