The gun was on the table behind the man. If he were to "drop" the gun he first would have had to pick it up from the table or sweep it off the table with a hand movement that would be an apparent reach for the gun. The bullet holes in the door say that the police did not even see the gun or the man they killed when they opened fire. I cannot agree with too many otherwise rational conservatives that the man deserved what he got because the police shot him.

Did they have their personal cameras on and running?

That’s not what the article said. Police said he was holding a gun and did not drop it when ordered to do so.
