No, none of the actions of the officers was related to the enforcement of Covid rules.
It was the individual not listening to the officer once he was getting a ticket. At that point he was in violation of a very reasonable law that has been upheld by the Supreme Court.
I agree with you that the police escalating the level of force was not the beat idea and waiting it out may have been better but once Ocean refused to identify himself he compels the officers to arrest him.
Also Covid does not have a 99.97% survival rate, it is a disease that has currently killed .03% of the worlds population (likely more as not all areas test all dead)
