When they allegedly tried to arrest him, Wright reportedly re-entered his vehicle. Then, an officer shot Wright before he drove away and struck a vehicle a couple of blocks away. Wright reportedly was pronounced dead at the scene.

A woman in the passenger seat reportedly suffered minor injuries.

“Here we go again,” frustratingly wrote 50 Cent as he heard the news on Instagram. Others have taken to social media to call for the police officer responsible to be held accountable for their actions.
