If the particles are moving slightly below lightspeed, accelerating slightly to maintain their distance slightly outside the event horizon, then Bob will see Alice hitting slightly different particles than he hits. Even though Alice jumped out well ahead of him, he sees her hit almost the same particles as he does, because those particles are moving so fast; the particles that she hit almost reach him before he hits slightly different ones.
For this reason, I think that it's fair to say that the event horizon is approaching Bob. But that's from Bob's perspective; you could also say that he's falling towards it.
