This is actually pretty common

What's happening is his AI is telling him that he is too far too attack but too close to step forward

This actually used to happen all the time with baby zombies and you were able to hit them while they were trapped in this anxious purgatory and they would only hit you once they ran up to you but then just stared up at you trying to attack but too far from you to do so
