No, it’s not a Renee Good-like incident since no immigration officers or deportation raid was happening, but it ended with someone getting shot in the face by police. It might have been the neck; either way, it didn’t end well for this individual on parole in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. My dude, if you pull that move on the cops, you’re going to get shot.
As I mentioned, it wasn’t a Good situation. This guy didn’t try to run over a cop, but he took him for a ride in his flatbed while trying to evade them. On March 12, Johnathan Otto, 35, was stopped by police and the state’s corrections department for a parole violation and an assault allegation. When confronted, Otto took off, leading cops on a wild chase. The officer gave Otto many chances to stop the vehicle.
His fiancée is heard pleading with him to stop the truck before yelling at the officer to jump off. That wasn’t going to happen. The police officer then gave an excessive number of chances for Otto to stop the vehicle before firing one round, killing him (via Milwaukee Journal Sentinel):

“[MPD] released body-worn and dashboard camera video on Friday from an incident earlier this month in which an officer shot and killed a wanted suspect. That suspect drove off from an attempted arrest with the officer holding onto the vehicle.”

“The officer who was holding onto the vehicle shot the suspect, ending the pursuit near 15th and Grant. The suspect died. A passenger in the flatbed truck was not injured but was taken to a hospital out of an abundance of caution.”

Bodycam footage showed a Milwaukee police officer's deadly March 12 interaction with a man he shot and killed, after about a 2-minute-long altercation where the officer hung from a truck and repeatedly warned the driver of his intent to shoot.
The video shows the 46-year-old officer repeatedly shouting for the Johnathan Otto, 35, to stop and warning him he would shoot him. The incident began after police and an agent from the Wisconsin Department of Corrections sought the man for a parole violation and an alleged assault.
The officer first warns the man he would shoot him about 90 seconds into the altercation that took place on the city's south side. The officer fires his gun and kills Otto about 30 seconds later.

Throughout the video, Otto's fiancée, Emily Hernandez, can be heard urging Otto to stop and for the officer to get off of the truck. At one point, the officer responds, "I can't jump off."
Hernandez previously told the Journal Sentinel Otto had slowed twice for the officer to get off the truck and that the shooting happened soon after the warning. The video appears to show roughly 30 seconds pass between the officer's first warning and when he shot Otto. It is difficult to determine if the truck slowed.
It’s also irrelevant—Otto needed to stop and obey a lawful order from a law enforcement officer. He didn’t and paid dearly for it.
