Suicide
Police said Grisby apparently was upset because he wanted to talk to his pregnant girlfriend, but her mother wouldn't let him inside the family's home. When officers arrived, Grisby was waving a gun. A white sport utility other driven by the uncle of Grisby's girlfriend was stopped on the street. Grisby started shooting toward the officers and the SUV. The SUV drove off, distracting the officers. When they turned their attention back to Grisby, he was lying on the ground. The officers didn't see Grisby shoot himself, but it was ruled a suicide the following April by Chief Medical Examiner Lisa J. Kohler.
