Even so, “always” was the wrong choice of words. I can think of a half dozen legal reasons to leave. Not saying they apply here, but they certainly negate the term “always.” Words have meaning.
That is by law.
But is leaving the scene of shooting in self defense a crime?
There's no need to exchange insurance information.

Leaving the scene of a crime is a crime. It's up to the local prosecutor to decide if it's a crime in this case. But leaving seems like a very bad idea.
A person who didn't commit a crime isn't obligated
to remain at the crime. (justified shooting in self
defense isn't a crime.) I doubt that there's even a
law requiring the person committing the crime to stay.
Fortunately, an armed man was there
to defend against one of the demented.
a demented gun owner who shot 4 additional shots in suspects back after he was dead on floor and disarmed
It pays to be sure.
There was the risk the robber would shoot innocent people.
So he had to be put down.

Was what appears to be a gun really a gun?
