One of the stabbing victims was a police officer.

The Tueller Drill Revisited (original article).

Basically, the point of those articles as far as this incident is concerned is that if the guy with a knife is close enough to you, he is going to be able to close with you and stab you before you can draw your gun. So it is entirely plausible that the suspect was able to stab the officer before the cop could get a shot off.
