How do you know what the officer saw? They’re tackling an armed man who attacked them. It’s very possible they might not be noticing every detail of what their colleagues are doing.

The most aggressive thing Pretti does in this encounter is step in between the CBP agent and the fallen woman. Not once does he attack them.

I'm not saying every officer that is dogpiling on him can see. I am saying the officer that is standing directly beside the one that disarms him, that is looking directly at the gun as it is removed from his possession saw it. He is looking right at it. He watches it happen.
And then he begins shooting.
