The dopey cop put himself in that danger by trying to enter a moving vehicle. Like the original poster said, he should have taken down the licence plate number, but most cops would rather look for an excuse to shoot someone than do something useful.
The security officer didn't attempt to enter the vehicle. How do you know the vehicle was moving when he opened the door, Carnac?.

I’m not sure about you but I have never seen anyone get into a vehicle in a wally parking lot without opening a door and I’ve never seen them get in that open door with the vehicle moving. So the door had to be open before the car was moved. Your assumption that he put himself there when the vehicle was moving is bogus. I believe that he was in the way and the lady started the vehicle and started moving it.
It really does not matter he was local law enforcement and she had the responsibility to follow his orders to stop the car.
Following your train of thought no one would have to follow Law Enforcement officers instructions. They could just try and run over them instead and that is just OK. That does not work for me or in any court that I know of.
