Who's to say he didn't chase them down to politely ask for his possessions back when they began to once again act in a violent manner. At that point he used his firearm in self defense.
Chasing them down was an act of anger, that clearly shows which emotion was more important to him at the time. Having a cooling down period and then acting in a way that results in taking a life means that he's technically guilty. I'll have no sympathy for those who committed the crime; just a *little* for him.
