I'm not so sure that he got what he deserved at this point. Reports are coming in that this guy was unarmed and "crying with fear" before he was gunned down. I still feel that restraining him, then unloading 5 bullets into him is a little excessive without knowing more information about this first!
Sure, he's Asian, was running away from armed police in a subway so close to the terrorist attacks and was wearing a coat, does that make him a terrorist? I think not. There could be lots of viable reasons why he was running from them - sure it was a very stupid thing to do, but we'd best hope that this was not an innocent man and the police made the right call.
If the police have shot an killed an innocent asian guy, we can expect serious reprisals.
