Yes, if you nitpick this incident you can go on and on about how there was no weapon therefore no deadly force was necessary, etc.
However, in light of how criminals have run amok recently, and that this criminal may in the future have committed theft that leads to death of innocent civilians, this was a good outcome.
Police said their preliminary investigation determined a fight happened inside the store when employees confronted the man about items he was trying to steal.
The customer, Kevin Jackson Sr, 47, walked into the store, saw the fight, and then shot the man who had been accused of stealing, police said.
The man, whose name has not been released, stumbled outside the store and collapsed. He did not have any weapons, police said.

Were they actively fighting at the time? Seems so dangerous to open fire on someone while fighting another. He could have hit the person he was trying to save!
This is why store employees are told not to fight or get in the way of someone stealing. It does not work out in anyone's favor not involved in the theft including bystanders.
