Toronto mayor Rob Ford’s chief of staff no longer in office
TORONTO – The chief of staff to Toronto’s embattled mayor is no longer in the job.
Mark Towhey left city hall a short while ago escorted by security.
He did not say why he was no longer Ford’s chief of staff, but said it followed discussions earlier in the day with the mayor.
He said his leaving did not come as a shock.
Towhey refused to say what advice he had given Ford about an alleged videotape that apparently shows the mayor smoking crack cocaine.
Ford has been dogged by the allegations for almost a week, but has said little about them, beyond calling them “ridiculous.”
