It also seems the shooter might have been able to dial 911, explain the situation and that he was outside the police station with the maniac in pursuit.

Possibly, but only if he had a cell phone. Given that just about everyone has one, it seems likely that Waller did, too. We simply don't
know that he had a cell phone.
I would submit that he may have pulled into the police station because he hoped he'd be safe there. If that's the case, that would indicate to me that his fear of death or bodily harm began well before he arrived at the CPD. Speculation, but not entirely unreasonable, I don't think.

Arkansas law doesn't require anyone to confirm that their attacker has a weapon before defending themselves.
