@vccstudents I believe he 'had the lid on" regarding Kimble back in Indiana. Once authorities back in Indiana knew Kimble was already there, Gerard would have lost control of him. Straight to prison for Kimble. Gerard knew the case against Kimble was unraveling and he needed to see it play out. Would have never happened once the state got involved. Although I understand your point.
4:42 I get chills whenever I see this scene - Kimble has Johnson at gunpoint but Johnson knows Kimble won't shoot ("You need me alive," as he puts it later) and he calmly aims and squeezes the trigger - and realizes he is out of ammunition. Watch the expression on Johnson's face upon realizing this.
@STP43FAN1 Another case of the cliche where the bad guy runs out of ammunition and uselessly throws the gun. What would be a great parody would be where the bad guy throws away the gun and a minute later finds a box of ammo--and no gun.
Listening to the score during that scene also reminds me of another 1960s classic--The Outer Limits.
When Gerard gives Kimble his gun to pursue Johnson, it constitutes the moment when Gerard finally realizes - and accepts - that Kimble is in fact innocent.
You'd think Gerard would have called for backup to meet him at the amusement park! No wonder Kimble eluded him for four years!

If Lyndon Johnson had decided that night to end the Vietnam War,Leonard Goldenson would have told him to wait until 11PM EDT.
The pier in Santa Monica changed quite a bit by the time I had gotten there in 1998.
