I agree that actions should have appropriate consequences.
Unfortunately, sometimes the stars align in a way that a person's actions have unintended consequences and this was one of those times.
I don't know what he as a current police officer (though off duty) is obligated to do by law that extends past what regular security guards are allowed to do. And he may have really felt is life was in danger, but I personally don't believe he should have shot at anyone. But he may be legally justified in doing so.
Either way, the whole thing was avoidable.
