The family of 75-year-old Anita Grayson is organizing a protest in downtown Fort Wayne Saturday as they continue demanding answers surrounding her death following an altercation at a Tim Hortons on Ice Way.
Community members are invited to gather at 5:30 p.m. outside the Allen County Courthouse.
21 Alive News says earlier this week, Fort Wayne Police released edited surveillance video and a response timeline tied to the May 13 incident.
The Allen County Coroner says preliminary findings showed no significant contributory injuries, while prosecutors say no decision will be made until all evidence is reviewed.
Civil rights activist Reverend Carlton Lynch joined the family Friday during a news conference.

Turning grief into a lawsuit is the bottom of morality. There isn’t a good person alive that doesn’t fear the very thing that happened. When my dad died I watched a surgeon leave his bedside with a look of despair. Whether he had done right, or wrong I knew there would be a penance paid by that man. I’m sure he spent a long time wondering if there would have been anything else he could have done. My dad died; Last thing on my mind was a lawsuit.
I’ve heard the family is spending the GoFundMe money on personal items and bills. Any shot at entitlement pity went out the window when the Fort Wayne Police did the right thing and released the video. The woman was the aggressor and the employees are now receiving death threats. There is a cultural rot at the heart of Black American and this story is another example. Normal people don’t go into a fast food restaurant and become aggressive because their order was wrong. Blacks need positive role models, yet the media keeps pushing people like Jasmine Crockett and all other members of the Dem party as people to admire. The media will of course portray this as racism, but they have rendered that word meaningless. Fort Wayne is getting too big and we are seeing more and more behavior and crime that is seen in the big cities.
