This was a serious problem with the situation though. He was eagerly complying but his continuing speaking to the officers was due to his concern of the other guy who was likely unable to comply with the officers that currently had their guns drawn. My first guess on this from what I've read is that the officer fired because of answering a call of a man with a gun, seeing the toy truck as a gun, not hearing or ignoring the other man explaining the situation, man with toy truck makes sudden movement with toy, and finally officer fires missing toy guy and hitting the man on ground. All within the span of a few moments. But that's a guess because I have no information on angles or distances of officer, toy guy, and shot guy. I would not be surprised that the officer didn't intend to shoot the guy on the ground but that's the way it turned out. I would expect it to be ruled a bad shoot but who knows these days.
