The person was fired because he broke policy and they need to be fair and consistent in adm of policies if the company hopes to save lives over all.

The robber was stealing while holding people at gunpoint. That is armed robbery.
The robber had the man at gunpoint. That is assault with a firearm.
The robber ordered the man into a back room. That is kidnapping at gunpoint.

Everybody in there was in life danger. The manager more so as he had been singled out for special treatment likely including his own death. The manager's actions were appropriate and warranted. If the manager shot both robbers dead on the spot he would have been within his rights.
