Yes but, evidently, he was also in possession of a (presumably unlicensed) firearm which they would have found as soon as they searched him. I'd imagine that's why he tried to get away.
Still, I don't know how he didn't realise that he'd get in a lot less trouble for just putting his hands up and saying "Ahh ****... yeah... I have a gun in my pocket..." and allowing them to take it there and then than pulling it out and attempting to shoot people. Obviously, he ended up dead, but even if he'd gotten away, he'd have been tracked down and in a hell of a lot deeper than just for being in possession. Straight up stupid.
