You don't need to wait for a trial to state or read what a law says. What he said was accurate.
Here is my summary from prior.
-------
Defending the shooters is a warping of the concept of Self Defense and makes a mockery of the 2nd Amendment and 2A beliefs.
If any of you is a 2A carrier, running down the street, and armed men in trucks pursue you, chase you down and attempt to detain you, you are justified in using your gun to stand your ground and defend yourself from their aggression. If you get into a shoot out and kill them you are justified under self defense and they are not.
You cannot add a caveat of 'what if the chasers SUSPECT a crime?' That changes nothing from the prior. Suspicion is NOT enough to allow average citizens to engage other average citizens with an attempt to detain, and any 2A proponent will tell you that. Not one of them would accept that from another citizen coming up on them, demanding they submit themselves to them because they 'think' something wrong MAY have been done prior.
