An arrest warrant has been issued for a suspect believed responsible for the death and dismemberment of a Port Huron man this past summer. 42 year old Reginald Grasty, believed to be homeless, is still at large and is wanted in connection to the murder of 44 year old William Michael Orlow. Orlow’s body was discovered June 23rd on the Sea Cadet Ship Gray Fox while docked along the St. Clair River.
