Mark Thompson, an attorney representing the grocery store Cup Foods, and a number of other businesses, sent a letter obtained by Fox News threatening to sue Frey and the Minneapolis City Council. In letter, Thompson accused the city has acted negligently and caused businesses in the area to suffer damages. "While the letter emanated from the Cup Foods attorney, it's not solely about Cup Foods. Cup Foods found itself at the center of Floyd's death after an employee dialed 911 when Floyd attempted to use a counterfeit $20 bill.
