LPOs are legally authorized to detain people. "Resisting arrest" might be the wrong exact terminology, but that would simply be case of arguing semantics The thief has no legal right to use a weapon to resist. Again, he was not acting in self-defence. That was straight-up assault with a deadly weapon.
