Sounds like improper use of deadly force to me.
I have been taught in my jurisdiction that you should ONLY pull out a concealed handgun if you feel that your life is in danger or the life of someone else is in danger. My training was that ff you pull out your concealed carry handgun it should be only because you NEED to kill someone to save your life or the life of another person. Otherwise, it stays concealed.
The actions and statements by this person could be used in a court of law (in some jurisdictions) against him as proof that he was not in a deadly force confrontation(i.e. because he didn't shoot) and he was the person who escalated the confrontation by pulling out a handgun (even after the bad guy had his firearm out).
This also is a good example of why you never talk to the media after a potential deadly force confrontation.
If one has a CCL, then you need to understand when deadly force can be used.

According to DOJ crime statistics, guns are used by private citizen 2.5 million times per year to prevent violent crimes like rape, robbery, home invasions and carjackings, 99% of the time without a shot being fired.
