Does not appear to be armed robbery. It actually sounded pretty weak to me.
The responsibility for this mans death resides solely with the police. The warrant is irrelevant. Lethal force was not justified, no question.

Not armed robbery? Weak?
How is first degree aggravated robbery not armed robbery and weak?
Daunte Wright accused of choking and robbing woman at gunpoint, had arrest warrant
(excerpt)
The victim asked him, "Are you serious?" to which he allegedly responded, "Give me the f---ing money, I know you have it," according to the court documents.
When she asked again if he was serious, he allegedly told her, "I’m not playing around."
Wright then allegedly choked the woman while trying to pull the cash out from under her bra, where she had tucked it away.
She reportedly screamed at them to get out of her apartment, telling them that the cops were close. Wright allegedly told her he would shoot her and said, "Give me the money and we will leave, give me the money and we will go."
He allegedly tried to choke her a second time and tried to take her money, according to the court documents. Driver allegedly told her to give Wright the money. The two men then left the apartment, got into a white Cadillac, and left the scene without the money. The woman later identified Wright and Driver via photo line-ups.
I didn't say that the force was justified.
I did say that if the Wright didn't resist, then he most likely would have been alive today.
Those are two separate ideas. You shouldn't conflate them.
