Toronto Mayor Rob Ford caused a stir Friday night when he dropped in on the annual Taste of the Danforth street festival. In a series of videos uploaded online, the mayor is at times unintelligible, sometimes swaying on his feet and repeatedly telling people "Let's go party."
Videos uploaded online describe Ford as "drunk" and "wasted" but there is no way to confirm that he had been drinking alcohol. Ford was arrested on charges of drunk driving and marijuana possession in Florida in 1999, and a Toronto Star has previously reported about the "open secret at city hall that the mayor has battled alcohol abuse."
A request for comment from the mayor's office garnered no response on Saturday.
The only thing that is clear from some of the photos and videos taken at the time is that Ford was holding a Tim Hortons cup.
The mayor's evil Twitter twin, Mayor Frod, repeatedly tweeted on Friday about having had too much coffee by way of explaining the mayor's odd behaviour.
Ford's appearance at Taste of the Danforth came mere hours after the Toronto Sun shed new light on a bizarre episode from 2012, when the mayor's sister's ex-boyfriend stormed the Ford home.
According to the Sun report, Scott MacIntyre burst into the house on Jan. 11 of 2012 and demanded to be paid.
"You owe me money, your sister owes me money, if I don't get it, they will kill me," MacIntyre yelled at the mayor, according to court documents.
It's unclear why MacIntyre, who was later arrested on drug possession charges, needed the money he asked for. In a series of phone calls with police later that night, the convicted drug dealer threatened the mayor's life, saying he would kill Ford with a machete or a gun, according to the Sun.
He was sentenced in June 2012 to five months and has since been released. The Sun could not get comment from the mayor's office for its story.
