How much actual training do soldiers receive in basic training to handle a weapon and recognize a situation. Of course those with advanced training in infantry and similar fields, but how about the soldiers in peripheral positions thrust into close combat situations. You can say they had inadequate training, but you can train forever and not face every situation.
You want to use logic, but most of these situations are controlled by emotions. You can't regulate emotions, you can practice for it, but no one knows until they're actually faced with a situation.

And probably, the leo that was shot did not identify himself as a leo. too much left out of the story to know what happened, really.
