The moment he chose not to comply, whatever happened after that was Bell's fault.

So if I tell someone to stop, they get into the car, I can threaten to kill them with a gun, and kill them if they try to get away?
But seriously, you feel that getting into a car equates to a threat just because you've been told to stop prior to that? It's non-compliance, but I don't see how having been told to stop prior to it makes it a threat automatically.
