"They were away from the vehicle in the traffic stop, indicating that the suspect walked away from the vehicle and was being non-compliant. It must have gone on for some time, for the incident to draw spectators to film it - probably some shouting, possibly some scuffling."

That's what I'm seeing too. The taser is laying on the ground, possible struggle for that, and when the vic sees the cop go for the gun, he runs.

Amazing. At .24 on the video, the cop after shooting, looks directly at the guy shooting the video, clearly sees him.

Yes, it's quite astonishing. If I were the cameraman, I would have been expecting to be killed immediately upon recognition by the officer that he was being filmed.
