Indiana woman, 75, dies after fighting Tim Hortons manager over drive-thru order issue
NY Post ^ | 5/20/26 | Richard Pollina

A 75-year-old Indiana woman died after she flew into a rage over her Tim Hortons order, took a swing at the manager and ripped out a chunk of her hair in the brawl that followed.

Anita Grayson stormed into the Tim Hortons in Fort Wayne — about 120 miles outside Indianapolis — just after 8 a.m. on May 13, and berated a 17-year-old female worker when she was upset about her drive-thru order, according to the Fort Wayne Police Department.

Surveillance footage released by the department captured Grayson pointing and shouting at the worker as the coffeehouse’s 20-year-old shift manager stepped in and told her to leave.

Police alleged that the supervisor touched Grayson when the furious customer stepped toward the young worker.

Grayson allegedly pushed the manager and punched her on the left side of her face. Police said the Grayson hit the 20-year-old hard enough to leave scratches and send her glasses flying.

As Grayson moved closer, the manager pushed her back. Grayson responded by shoving her hand in the manager’s face, triggering a melee that ended with the pair on the ground.

“Ms. Grayson then grabbed the shift lead by the hair and pulled her to the ground and rolled on top of her. The shift lead can be seen swatting at Grayson’s arm as she is being held by her hair,” the department said.

“Two Tim Hortons employees moved in and attempted to separate them but struggled to get the shift lead’s hair out of Grayson’s hand. During the struggle, Ms. Grayson pulled a chunk of hair from the shift lead’s head leaving a raw area on the top of her head.”

Are these animals capable of doing ANYTHING in a civilized manner?

Very little

The article says she had congestive heart failure. She had been wearing a heart monitor.

She won’t. She’ll choose to remain ignorant out of a misplaced loyalty to her mother’s memory.

Studies show that when a rager is at their peak of rage they actually calm down. Their heart rate and blood pressure drop. They are transferring their stress to the target.

I’ve never heard of this before.

“ Note* “unalived”.....only the woke use terms like that.”

That started due to automatic social media censorship. The system detects words like “killed” or “rape” , so they will use “k*lled” or “graped” to get around it. Strange it would end up actually part of the language.

I am simply glad she died. Self removal from the gene pool.

The c19 vaxxx - boosters scrambled millions of brains. Miss Anita went down swinging. Her daughter has already phoned the lawyers.

I assume every order from a fast food outlet has something wrong. It is the nature of the beast. So I don’t get upset about it. The best thing you can do is check the order before you leave the drive up window. If you want to escalate it, return, walk in and explain the problem. They will fix it. You don’t have to yell at the workers.

From firsthand experience this past month in a local Popeye's, imo, NO...they aren't.

‘Unalived” is newspeak for “killed” to avoid getting banned on platforms like YouTube. Some people also add “in Minecraft “ as a suffix to a sentence to make it seem like they’re talking about something happening in the game Minecraft. I started to hear these used around 2021, 2022.

It's not about Tim Horton's. It's about using the drive-thru for convenience and a quarter-mile away, finding your order is wrong...probably not the first time.

Our neighborhood Chick-fil-A verbally double checks your order before you leave the 'order' speaker.

Is that enough of a clue to not need a picture of the deceased?
