You might be interested in reading the book "I Robot" by Isaac Asimov, which is a collection of short stories examining different variations on this question. But spoiler alert the robot would choose the action that in it's own reasoning would cause the least injury to humans, and if it couldn't stop injury would probably damage it's positronic brain in the process.
