Republican St. Johns County Sheriff David Shoar lashed out at a reporter this week while he was leaving a debate. He cursed at the reporter while pointing his middle finger.
According to local news station News 4 Jacksonville, Shoar’s raging attack on the reporter came after a fight broke out during the St. Johns County Sheriff debate at the Shriner’s Club in St. Augustine, Florida.
“In the video posted to Facebook, Sheriff Shoar appears to become angry and starts yelling at [St. Johns County Sheriff candidate Chris] Strickland supporters,” Reports News 4. “Minutes later, he allegedly hurled insults at a Ponte Vedra Beach reporter over an article the journalist wrote. Shoar can be heard directing an expletive at the reporter.”
After Shoar abruptly left the event, a member of Strickland’s social media team followed him to his car, that’s when he began cursing.
“Go f-ck yourself,” the sheriff said, before daring them to “go put it on Facebook,” which they promptly did.
He can then be seen extending his middle finger.
