"The 17-year-old shot and killed was identified as Hazrat Ali Rohani by Kent-Meridian High School Principal David Radford, according to the Kent Reporter."
And from another article:
"According to court documents, Myers said he "had a duty to act to stop the individuals from hurting someone innocent and to protect his son who was at the location next door to Big 5 Sporting Goods." "
...and ...
"Myers reiterated to detectives that the teens would not follow his commands. It should be noted that Myers is not a uniformed law enforcement officer, and they did not need to follow his commands. " source
...and....
"Myers said he thought he saw a teen reach for something in his waistband, so he fired multiple times. According to court documents, he stood over the teen on the ground and continued to fire."
So Main-Character-Syndrome middle aged guy was pointing his gun and the teenager wouldn't obey his commands, so decided to live out his vigilante fantasy and murder a teen. Lock this guy up for good.
God knows how long this fucking freak has been itching to kill someone. He thought being a security guard would get him the cop treatment for murdering someone in broad daylight.
Probably tried to be an officer and wasn't accepted. A lot of people who want to be a cop start out as security.
