You would be incorrect.

Show me the cases in law supporting your contention.

So, you see, there are multiple reasons that someone in the situation my mother was in would be lawfully justified in driving the police-officer off (possibly including deadly force). So, being lawfully justified, would be no lawbreaker.

Then why didn't she come out of the house firing, or better yet shooting discreetly from inside the house

Obviously it would have been different if he did have a warrant, no?
IOW, she was acting responsibly, investigating the situation, and not jumping to conclusions.
