If you have to draw on someone, and if they comply and stop their threatening activity, you cannot shoot them or you will most likely find yourself in a cell with some large hairy men. You also have no duty to try to arrest or detain the BG. In fact doing so may cost you. You are not a leo, so if the guy drops the knife and runs, let him go. It sucks, but anything else will most likely get you in serious legal trouble. At least thats my opinion.
