They had him surrounded. He was no danger to anyone. It's not like he died in the confusion of a shootout or something. They took their time to plan it, set up the bomb robot and a bomb, slowly drive it up to him and detonate. That's an execution. Honestly I'm glad the guy is dead, and it's easy to let emotions of this influence opinions. But I'm scared for the precedent this sets. In the future, when a suspect is cornered and would normally try to be talked down by police, they'll just send in a bomb robot and blow him up. Maybe he won't even be armed, but the police don't know that. So he's an "imminent threat" and can legally be executed.
