..."In the incident last month, a Garner police officer responded to a restaurant in Wake County, North Carolina, around 5 a.m. and found Grant in his vehicle, according to the motion to revoke his release. He appeared to be intoxicated, and the officer began a DWI investigation, it said.
As he was being arrested, Grant tried to flee, the filing said.
“He then dropped to the ground and stated something to the effect of ‘Just kill me now.’ He then stated, ‘It’s over,’” according to the filing and the police report.
In Grant’s car, police recovered an AR-15 assault rifle, 60 rounds of ammunition, weapon accessories and combat fatigues, court documents said.
Grant was charged with driving while impaired, according to court documents and the police report. The DWI case is pending in Wake County District Court.
The motion to detain Grant also said he provided urine samples that tested positive for amphetamines in October and November.
The motion said: "He was caught driving drunk with an assault rifle and over 60 rounds of ammunition in his vehicle, and initially attempted to flee from law enforcement. There are no conditions or combination of conditions that could ensure the safety of the community and Grant’s presence in court if he were to remain released."

Kelly granted the motion Tuesday, saying Grant violated the terms of his release, which ban possession of firearms, excessive consumption of alcohol and use of narcotics or other controlled substances."
