It means that if you find them, whether they are dead or alive, you have to tell the police about it. It doesn't matter if they are breathing or not, but it doesn't mean that you can kill them without facing consequences

Historically, some wanted posters offering a reward contained the phrase "dead or alive". Thus one would get a reward for either bringing the
person or their body to the authorities. This could indicate that the
person was an outlaw, and that it was permissible to kill them. Alternatively, it might mean
that it was permissible to kill them if they resisted arrest. While most
issuers of wanted posters instead preferred the target to be taken
alive in order to stand trial, some private organizations were willing
to go to these extreme measures to protect their interests.[4][5]
