Look what I found; Wright's warrant was for armed robbery with a firearm.

Should have grabbed a copy... But, the warrant was for an armed robbery, with a firearm. Not sure why the outrage, and riots. The body cam video clearly show Wright, hands behind his back, about to be cuffed. He quickly broke free, and hopped in the car. Pretty obvious, he would have put it in gear, and stomped on the gas, plowing into anybody standing in the way. There wasn't time to be selective of weapon, to jump out of the way. Taser probably wouldn't have been the best choice either, considering the closed quarters, and close range. It wasn't just the cops standing next to the car, there were also bystanders at risk of getting hit by the car, if allowed to speed off. Armed robbery, with a gun enhancement, would have been some serious prison time.
