She still hasn't been released. She's not under arrest. She's being interviewed as a witness to an officer involved shooting.

That seems within the law. If she is a direct witness to a fatal shooting there would be a critical need to get her side of the story as soon as possible, and usually that would be done by detectives at a police station, not the responding officers at a crime scene.

Source?

They can't take a statement on the street?
