Nice.

However, having to handle a cell phone with a drawn pistol certainly compromised his situational awareness . I think he'd have been better off just focusing on the business at hand and then taking pictures once the police arrived and he was able to holster his firearm.

Tunnel vision is bad enough in a tense situation. Focusing on manipulating a video recording device only serves to further narrow the user's field of awareness.

I was thinking the same thing. There are other things I would focus on instead of "Where's my camera phone?"

10 rounds still isn't good enough. Especially when there were 5 of them. At least with a 15 round mag there's an average of 3 rounds per bad guy. Or grab an ar with a 30 round mag for more security. Of course this happened in another communist state so they don't have that option either.
