The Port Huron Police Department has announced the location and subsequent arrest of suspected murderer Reginald Cu-Nu Grasty. Grasty is suspected in the murder of William Michael Orlow, whose body was discovered on the Grayfox, a former Navy vessel that was docked on the St. Clair River near the Blue Water Riverwalk in June.
The search for Grasty has been ongoing with a warrant issued in December. Grasty was thought to be homeless somewhere in the Detroit area. No motive or details on the relationship between the suspect and the deceased were provided. The death was determined to be the result of trauma.
Grasty was apprehended by U.S. Marshalls in Detroit and was handed over to the custody of the Port Huron Police Department. Grasty was questioned and arraigned on charges of open murder and Disinterment/Mutilation of a Corpse. He is lodged at the St. Clair County Intervention Center.
Bond was set at $750,000 with a Probable Cause Conference set for February 2nd in front of Judge Mona Armstrong.
