A warrant has been issued for Outback Wrangler Matt Wright as police call for TV star’s arrest
Police have issued an arrest warrant for reality TV star Matt Wright, nine months after one of his co-stars was tragically killed in a helicopter crash.
The Outback Wrangler star is expected to be charged by police following an extensive investigation into the crash that killed his co-star Chris ‘Willow’ Wilson in February in the Northern Territory.
Wright, 43, is expected to be charged with a variety of offenses, including perverting the course of justice, destroying evidence, fabricating evidence, obstructing witnesses, unlawful entry and making a false statement.
Sky News understands that Wright – who lives in Queensland – has been told to go to a police station in Darwin on Wednesday when he is expected to be charged.

Wilson, 34, was collecting crocodile eggs in a remote area in western Arnhem Land when the helicopter he was traveling in crashed on February 28.
Clearly, the police investigation looked into Wright’s actions before and after the fatal crash.
According to police, Wright tampered with evidence at the scene of the crash.
