An elderly man in Detroit whose death became a cause for gay rights advocates died of natural causes, not from being beaten, authorities said Wednesday. Police also said they intended to close the investigation into 72-year-old Andrew Anthos’ death.

”There’s no evidence that an assault occurred,” police spokesman James Tate told The Detroit News.

According to family members, Anthos said he was riding a city bus home from the library on February 13 when a young man asked him if he was gay and uttered a slur. Anthos said the man followed him off the bus and confronted him again. Anthos said he told the man he was gay as he went to help a friend whose wheelchair was stuck in a snowbank, according to his cousin, Athena Fedenis.
