The person involved had already terroized someone, and the call was for an intruder. When this man ran at him and made an actual, physical threatening gesture, he was fully within his right to drop him. All the internet toughguys out there can talk about how he should have engaged this man in hadn to hand combat, but anyone who's actually been in a combat situation can tell you that it is next to impossible to safely disarm a suspect who has a melee weapon such as a knife without getting hurt. Not every cop or soldier is a martial arts expert, and even then it's incredibly difficult. He refused to comply with the requests to stop, and the cop had no choice but to protect his own life from the threat.
By the sounds of the story, this situation was caused by a drunken moron who thought he could intimidate and threaten down a police officer, and had made everyone aware that he was armed all the time.
