I have posted a lot of information & links in the thread as have several others. Your assessment ignores that she only had to put on the lead or walk away. Not much of a threat. IMO no threat at all.

If all she had to do to escape the threat was to put the dog on a lead, or walk away, she was still being threatened. That. Was. A. Crime. To report to the police that she was being threatened, was perfectly legitimate.
There were no “good guys” here, but that action was proper.
