It is the same psychology that is seen in a hit and run suspect, especially a sober one. Some people just freak out.

Or, "I racked the slide and dropped the mag - it's fine..." instead of doing it the other way around. Then again, the article doesn't make it clear what type of handgun it was. Jordan nailed it, though - if only one of the Four Commandments was followed then this could have been prevented.
