One of the men in the video that shows a group of men shouting vulgarities at City News Reporter Shauna Hunt has been identified.
According to Wilfrid Laurier’s website, from 2003-2005 Shawn Simoes was a member of the Men’s Soccer Team.
Hydro One says it is taking steps to terminate Simoes for violating the company code of conduct.
When Hunt asked Simoes about what he was saying in the video he said “It’s f-ing amazing…I respect it.”
When asked how his mom would respond, he said “My mom would die laughing eventually.”
He is also registered as playing in the Ontario Hydro Soccer League.
Simoes was also on the Sunshine List in 2014 with a salary of $106,000.
