Here's a little more info on another news site

It seems she was schizophrenic, and had turned to flee after officers had unsuccessfully tried to talk her into putting down her weapons.

I'm glad to hear that her brother does not blame the police.

Another news site mentions that she was not in a room but instead she was OUTSIDE her home. This means there was no possibility of shutting her in a room till she calmed down.

Any more ideas of how this could have been handled better? I personally don't think there was anything else to do. Unless you have a specifically measured sedative in a dart gun handy.
