He was throwing rocks at them, they aren't particularly leathal weapons are they. You might hear some argue that they we're afraid he had another weapon on him like a gun and was about to use it as he turned around but seriously just think about it, if he had a gun, he would have used that first instead of throwning rocks at them.
He was throwing his hands in the air and trying to run away. He has his hands in the air as he stops running when he sees he's going to be caught. It's hard to argue he was doing anything but surrendering.
And if that's justification to shoot someone becuase they might have a gun, we're all fucked.
