I think there are at least two theories that still have some followers even with the autopsy results-

One assumes the cop was shooting at, but failed to hit his target while he ran away. At some point, he turned around, perhaps to surrender, and was then shot repeatedly.
The other goes a bit further and attributes a grazing shot to the arm as having actually come from behind, and the autopsy got it wrong. Note that if your arm is down and you are shot from behind, the wound would rip from back to front. If your arm is up and you are advancing, again the wound would rip from back to front of the arm.
