When damage like that occurs the remaining muscles and tendons around and below it will basically overtighten and lock. Its a defense mechanism to close the arteries and veins as much as possible to slow the blood loss. He literally couldn't drop it anymore. This usually lasts until either shock or blood loss forces them to relax and then they just bleed out. There's a few pictures and clips where it looks like outside the shock he is trying to throw it away or knock it out as he realizes then forgets again, common in shock as they fixate on one thing for a while and then changes. Like the famous war movie trope of the dude with an arm blown off wandering around through machine gun fire to find it. Even the famous pic of him with the gun on the ground with his arm blown open, it looks like he's trying to knock it out by pushing the barrel against the ground.
I don't think he was physically able, I think he would have ditched it if his hand didn't have a rictus grip on it. He was probably shocked and surprised to see the gun still in his hand after all his running hysterics.
Surprised for sure when knew the police were coming to "save" him. Him, the convicted felon whose hand had an unbreakable death grip on the gun he had just attempted to murder someone with.
Surprises like that don't come often and need to be cherished. No "hands up. don't shoot" for him.
Ballistic Kek.
It still boggles my mind that the guy who got shot in the elbow was still physically able to even hold his pistol.
Wasn't legally able to hold it, as I understand it. He is a felon.

That makes sense, thank you
