Considering he participated in a failed coup d'etat riot, I'm more inclined to think he pulled a gun.

Might still be something awful that happened for no reason, but coincidentally, happened to an awful person. We don't know, at this point. But we know he was an awful person - so either way, fuck him. If it turns out the cops murdered him then fuck them too.
