The Fords will not be releasing surveillance video footage of the incident involving Mayor Rob Ford and Toronto Star reporter Daniel Dale Wednesday evening, Councillor Doug Ford says.

“As far as we are concerned, the police have seen it, we don’t need to prove that he was there, Daniel Dale admitted he was there, Rob caught him there, the neighbours saw him there,” Doug Ford told the National Post.

When asked why not release the video to the public, considering Dale’s and the mayor’s versions of the events differ sharply, Doug Ford demurred.

“It’s with the police right now, you can see his head bobbing up and down behind the fence, it’s a distance from the cameras to the fence, but you can see distinctly his head bobbing,” he responded.

“It’s not even the point. The thing is, it might not have been the Toronto Star hiding in the bushes, it could have been some nut case.”
