Looks like he froze. Some people do that.
Everybody does, to some extent, when confronted with an incongruous situation. I have had it happen to me, and I have seen it in others. You can try to train yourself into transitioning more quickly, but your mind will almost certainly start (and stay in, for some length of time) in a state of disbelief when you're in Condition White and are confronted with something as unexpected as a violent attack.

Nobody moves from Condition White to Condition Red instantly. The key takeaway is likely to try to be more situationally aware and move from White to Yellow in advance of a need.
