If you were a murderer on the run and there was a manhunt for you, wouldn't you still be carrying a gun?

Also you would want to carry a weapon in a manhunt only if you intend not to be caught alive, because firing your weapon in a manhunt would only end in one way for the hunted.
> Police revealed that finding the 26-year-old was a complete surprise, and that they did not have his name on a list of suspects prior to today. "I'd rather be lucky than good!" Impressive that they do seem to have found the right guy, based on the documents in his possession, and this was apparently due solely to the one photograph of his face that the police found and released.

I wonder if the McDonald's employee really recognized him from those couple of off-angle photos or if Mr. Mangione himself initiated the action in order to let someone "deserving" collect the reward.

Yes, he's not acting rationally because he's having a mental health crisis. If you look at his Twitter account, he disappeared a few months ago and all the replies were friends asking where he went. (Also, he's a tpot poster, which is a kind of tech bro that likes tweeting about how great it is to do psychedelic drugs. This is bad for your mental health!)
