IF someone is running by foot, he is not a threat to anyone, unless he is swinging a weapon of somekind. Shooting someone while fleeing is terrible in so many levels.

If he is running by foot at the officer, he is a threat. If he is running at another person, he is a threat. If he is running away, he is NOT a threat. Simply, "unarmed and running" is not enough information.
