DETROIT (FOX 2) – Kahari Wright was beaten by the family of a teen girl he’s accused of sexually assaulting, and his mugshot tells the story. The assault was caught on camera by witnesses last week.
The 37-year-old, was taken away from Detroit’s northwest side on a gurney – and later charged, with first-degree criminal sexual conduct.
“He had his eye hanging out and all that type of stuff,” said Marc D’Andre, 7 Mile Radio. “Basically street justice was served real quickly and all that type of stuff with this one.”
FOX 2 has learned more about Wright’s past – and it appears to be a dangerous one. It takes us back to a story we reported in October, where he allegedly broke into a home and put a gun to a 2-year-old’s head. The incident happened in a home on Alcoy Street on Detroit’s east side.
The toddler’s mother spoke about the terrifying moment Wright allegedly held the gun to her child’s head.
“I couldn’t breathe, it took the breath out of my body.”
Last October a Detroit mother of two described the horror at the hands of Wright, who broke in, stole $400, and allegedly started firing shots – lining her baby’s crib, and wounding her friend in the arm.
