Wright and another man, identified as Emajay Maurice Driver, a high school acquaintance, had both been charged with first-degree aggravated robbery in a December 2019 incident in Osseso, Minn., Hennepin County District Court documents show.

Wright and Driver went to a party at an apartment in the 600 block of North Oaks Drive in Osseo – about 5 miles from Brooklyn Center, where Wright was fatally shot.

Around 2:30 a.m., two women at the home told Wright and Driver they needed to leave, but the two men said they did not have a ride, the documents say. The women reportedly allowed the Wright and Driver to spend the night.

In the morning, one of the two women left the apartment to get $820 in cash to pay the other for rent. After paying the rent, she left for work.

As Wright and Driver were waiting for their rides, the other woman who stayed behind said Wright allegedly blocked the door, preventing her from leaving. Wright then allegedly pulled a black handgun "with silver trim out from either his right waistband or his right coat pocket," pointed it at the woman and demanded the $820

Street justice may at times be a little harsh, but several other persons shall NOT suffer at the hands of this miscreant, by a pretty simple cancellation

Duante got his ticket punched but good.

Report: Daunte Wright Had Warrant for Attempted Aggravated Robbery

breitbart ^ | 13 Apr 2021 | GABRIELLE REYES

Daunte Wright allegedly had a warrant out for his arrest at the time he was shot and killed by a Brooklyn Center police officer near Minneapolis, Minnesota, court papers obtained by the British Daily Mail newspaper suggest.

"Wright was to face trial on a charge of attempted aggravated robbery – with a possible maximum sentence of 20 years in prison," the newspaper reported.

The charge stems from December 2019 when Wright, then 19, and a man named Emajay Driver, 18 years old, allegedly visited a residence shared by two women in Osseo, Minnesota. Wright allegedly tried to hold up one of the women to steal a sum of $820 in cash she had stashed inside her bra.

Wright allegedly pointed a gun at the woman, choked her, and threatened to shoot her if she did not hand over the money.

"The $820 cash was tucked in the victim's bra and defendant Wright placed his hand around victim's neck and choked her while trying to pull the cash from under her bra," according to Officer Mikkelson. "Victim was able to get loose from defendant Wright and started to kneel down and scream."

"After more yelling, Wright allegedly told the woman that he was going to shoot her unless he got the money," according to the Daily Mail.

Wright's bail for the charge was set at $100,000, "with orders that he should not contact the victim or any witnesses, refrain from drugs and alcohol and not have any weapons. A bond bailsman paid $40,000 for his release," the Daily Mail reports.

Wright's bail was revoked in July 2020, however, "due to his ‘failure to not possess a firearm or ammunition’ and not keeping in touch with his probation officer," according to court papers seen by the Daily Mail.

This underscores why when the police chief said the warrant was for a ‘gross misdemeanor,’ it was a bit misleading. Yes, failure to appear is a misdemeanor (in most places). But, the underlying crime that precipitated the court date he failed to appear at, was a FELONY, punishable by up to 20-years in prison, according to MN statutes.

No, Wright wasn’t pulled over for an ‘air freshener’ as has been alleged (he was pulled over because his license plates were expired). And in actuality, he didn’t resist arrest because of a misdemeanor. He was resisting arrest because he was looking at 20-years in prison.

Two birds of a thuggish feather...

So he was a felon and resisted and was going to flee. I think if he was resisting the cop should not be charged with a crime. Cops are so afraid to administer justice now it’s costing them there lives. It’s ok when they get shot for no reason but let them shoot a criminal that’s got warrants and resisting and it’s the end of there career and possible lives.

[Dead Corpse]

That’s a bit more than just an “unlicensed firearm” that the early stories had.

I hate thieves...

[ETL]

He robs a woman at gunpoint who was nice enough to allow the POS to stay the night because he didn’t have a ride to get home.

...but he was such a good wittle boy!

Doesn’t matter he is the martyr of the day.

It is always shocking to see how many “Freepers” crawl out of the woodwork to excuse homicidal behavior perpetrated by the police as agents of an out-of-control government, all the while bitching and moaning about how their freedom and liberty is being usurped by those very same agents of our criminal illegitimate government. There is never a reason for the police to kill someone who is fleeing from capture for a non-capital offense. Worse, the cop unbelievably pulled a service pistol to shoot the suspect when she intended to use a taser. This is not “law and order” but gross negligence on full display. GOPee Delenda Est!

[frank ballenger]

Don’t know if others mentioned this but it was nauseating to see soon after the first news stories that the media found gentle, peace loving, caring and loving pictures of Daunte showing innocence, including gently holding the baby.

Like the past cases where they show a 23 year old street thug only as a high school student full of promise and hope. Before a string of violent felonies.

And we can still see pictures of Trump scowling, angry, looking odd between expressions (as eyes almost closing) to go with “he may still go to jail if NY tax record cases come to trial.”

[frank ballenger]

The mug shots make him look so....criminal.
Other published pictures at home have him holding a baby and looking kind.

[shotgun]

Sounds like the bail bondsman made out.

Heathens learned to hide behind the race card and supported by the MSM is why things are the way they are now.

Now we have Saint Wright. He is good for a family member grift of taxpayers and some looting, burning and killing.
