The "rush" was impending nightfall but I think the real rush was that he had eluded them in the past and they really wanted to contain him quickly. It's not as if they threw in hand grenades and killed him instantly. I believe that they were trying to smoke him out. If he came out with his hands up and they shot him dead, I would be really angry as well. That didn't happen. He could have walked out the door and surrendered but he didn't (and I'm pretty sure he knew this and decided to shoot himself). Let's not forget, it wasn't HIS house either but you guys seem to completely ignore that fact. It wasn't the cops house to burn down but it sure as shit wasn't his to use as a hideout in a standoff with cops.
