Not at all sure where you got that piece of information as you didn't cite a source. Everything I have seen is that he was not subdued but was arrested standing alone next to his car in the parking lot. If there really was a person in the theater with a CCW who was prepared to take out Holmes, how much longer was he going to wait?

Aurora officers describe arresting James Holmes

Aurora police officer Jason Oviatt arrested Holmes a few minutes later, after finding him outside, standing with his hands on top of his car. Oviatt said Holmes was "completely compliant" when told to surrender. Oviatt, though, said that when he first spotted Holmes, he thought he was a fellow officer because he was dressed in full body armor and wore a gas mask and helmet.

"He was just standing there not doing anything, not urgent about anything," Oviatt testified
