I read the initial story and it sounded like the latter, but maybe things have changed as more facts have come out. If there's somewhere I can read a detailed account without the standard "questions are being asked" and "implications for police" stuff, that would be good.

This was not clarified yet.
However, as we can only speculate, there's one thing to consider. If she was within a knife striking distance of an officer, she would surely see the uniform. Which would imply that she was knowingly trying to stab a policeman. Can't rule out anything, but it doesn't make much sense. There was no need to make threats let alone swing knife to make officer go away, as she could just tell him to do so. He didn't come to arrest her or anything.
The other scenario is that she was standing some distance away from the cop, was holding a knife, and couldn't recognize the cop in the dark. She refused to drop the knife and was shot. Seems more likely and the same thing happened in Texas, except for that texan woman was holding a gun.
