Because this one has kicked up a giant cloud of media attention, and the others that happen every day do not, generally, as it's not a Harvard Professor getting arrested, very loudly.
Therefore now is a great time for the President (whether it's normal or not) to step up and use the media attention and the incident to make people think, and to let them know what he thinks. Doesn't strike me as odd at all.
