Maybe the car was filling with water and threatening to drown his children, right? Or, maybe one was choking on some crystal meth and he was afraid it would all be gone before he returned? Could be that a demon was attempting to take control of one of the children and he was rushing to prevent it with a crucifix.
No, we do not have all the facts, so maybe it is better not to pre-judge the police also.

He had a record of felonies
He has a warrant for his arrest
He was violent and fought the police
He refused to comply with police orders
He reached into his car for....?

As a juror I would be inclined to give the police the benefit of doubt over the perp, until someone presents evidence that the police had evil intent when dealing with him.
