Keeping in mind this was a one armed man confined to a wheelchair:

I would love to know the reasoning behind the expectation that he could produce a second hand. The first was quite obviously involved in propulsion.
The idea that a pen wielding one armed, one legged, wheelchair bound man requires a response of lethal force is ridiculous enough. Reading that it was a felt tip pen and that it wasn't evened the cornered cop that drew his "duty weapon" would make this comical if it weren't tragic and today, seemingly routine.
