In a news conference on Thursday, Wright accused the police officer of escalating a situation "that didn't need to be escalated."

"I was not breaking the law," Wright said. "I was only doing what was right and what everybody else should do. And I'm standing here today because I don't want a police officer like that patrolling our community. He escalated a situation that didn't need to be escalated."
