Unless the officers can articulate a real reason for approaching this vehicle and hassling the occupant they are in the wrong. Without more details this looks like a serious fuck up on their part.

Two armed thugs (transit police) approach a woman in the middle of night for no reason is about the worst optics you can get.

She is probably ODD on top of it and if you watch the footage you see how that goes. I guess if you have mental health issues police are just supposed to shot you. I guess that is how we handle our mental health crisis in the US.
