An Indiana<\/a> woman is dead after authorities say she got into a physical fight with a fast food restaurant manager over an order dispute.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Anita Grayson, 75, visited a Tim Hortons in Fort Wayne on Wednesday, May 13 to “address an issue with an order she had received through the drive-thru,” the Fort Wayne Police Department (FWPD) said in a press release<\/u><\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Once inside the restaurant, police said Grayson began “berating” a 17-year-old female employee, which caused a 20-year-old manager to intervene and make repeated requests for Grayson to leave.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to police, Grayson subsequently “appeared to move around the shift lead toward the juvenile employee,” which caused her to place “her hands against Grayson in an apparent effort to prevent her from reaching” the minor.<\/p>\n

The altercation quickly turned physical<\/a> as Grayson “forcefully shoved the shift lead backward” and “then struck the shift lead on the left side of the nose with her right hand,” police said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The shift lead then attempted to strike Grayson, who police said grabbed the 20-year-old\u2019s face, knocked off her glasses and grabbed her by the hair while dragging her to the ground.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Grayson then rolled on top of the shift lead, with video footage showing her attempting to swat Grayson\u2019s arm as she was being held by her hair.<\/p>\n

Two employees jumped in to break up the altercation, in which Grayson “pulled a chunk of hair” from the shift lead\u2019s head.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Grayson then sat down at a nearby table and began speaking on the phone before retrieving the shift lead\u2019s clump of hair and placing it in her purse, according to police.<\/p>\n

Approximately 10 minutes later, police said Grayson laid down on the floor and was unresponsive when the shift lead came to offer her a cup of water<\/a>.<\/p>\n

First responders arrived at the scene and attempted to perform life-saving measures before transporting Grayson to the hospital, where she was later pronounced dead.<\/p>\n

GOT A TIP?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Footage released by the department shows the physical altercation between Grayson and the shift lead, but does not include the moment the 75-year-old laid down on the floor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a report released Tuesday, the Allen County Coroner\u2019s Office told WANE-TV<\/u><\/a> that an autopsy found “no significant contributory injuries” on Grayson\u2019s body.<\/p>\n

Her cause and manner of death remain pending, and a completed investigative file has been forwarded to local prosecutors, according to FWPD.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In the initial news release, police acknowledged “the public concern surrounding the case.”<\/p>\n

“The Fort Wayne Police Department recognizes that any loss of life is tragic,” authorities said. “When the circumstances surrounding a death are not immediately clear, those circumstances must be thoroughly and professionally investigated.”<\/p>\n

Speaking to WPTA<\/u><\/a>, Tawanda Grayson, the woman\u2019s daughter, blasted the employees\u2019 actions before her mother\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

“My mother was wronged in the worst way,” Tawanda Grayson said. “You should not enter a coffee shop<\/a> for a coffee and a doughnut and come out unalived. That is diabolical.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

A GoFundMe created by Grayson\u2019s loved ones to cover funeral expenses described the 75-year-old as “a God-fearing woman with a loving spirit who dedicated her life to her faith<\/a>, her children, and her family.”<\/p>\n

“She was the best mother anyone could ask for \u2014 hardworking, compassionate, selfless, and always willing to help others before herself,” the fundraiser continued. “She lovingly raised four children and was the heart of our entire family. Anita\u2019s strength, wisdom, and unconditional love touched everyone who knew her.”\u00a0<\/p>\n
