    they have no idea what he looks like, other than white male and a rough age range. if there isn't enough evidence to find personal info about him, that's the end of it. a cop could look him in the eye and have no idea.

      luckily they are unlikely to let that them stop them from shooting him

      The NYPD has released pictures of his face with his mask down, if it is him they have a mostly clear image now unfortunately.

      Edit: examining the images now though I'm not totally convinced it's the same person

          I made an edit, I hadn't looked super close but I think you're right, nose is different, different coat and bag, and the police are that incompetent to think it's him and be wrong. Or they just have so much pressure to 'do their job' that they had to release something.

        the first few hours are by far the most important, the chances of catching him just keep going down after that.
