That would make more sense. The distinctive backpack must have made him easily traced by cameras.
Why would he do that?
Either he was incompetent or he knows the art of misdirection. A mask that he knowing allowed to be seen would send the authorities on a wild goose chase. All of the cops would be looking for the wrong person for a long time.
A quick change, ditch all the distinctive outfit, and change into a non-descript Walmart outfit. Then take care to let no camera see his real face as he high-tails to a safe location.
There was a high-profile public murder case some years back in my area. Police stated the alleged killer wore an eye-catching band-aid smack in the middle of his face. Now for several days, I kept looking out for some dude with a band-aid until it occurred to me that the guy probably ripped it off immediately after the hit and it just might have been a red herring from the beginning. Nobody was ever caught.

Edit: meaning to highlight it might be intentional to have such a noticeable thing only to discard it later (if it’s not reversible or something already).
Those facial features could absolutely also be a mask. They’re very exaggerated
Hmmm…

Or even just artificial
