By FOX 29 staff article
BUCKS COUNTY, Pa. - The former Bucks County first assistant district attorney demoted for delivering DoorDash during work hours has resigned, a spokesperson told FOX 29.
Gregg Shore was demoted in March to deputy district attorney after the Bucks County District Attorney Office learned he demonstrated very poor judgment by working a side job delivering food for DoorDash and did so, at times, during normal business hours, District Attorney Matt Weintraub said.
Using his accrued vacation time, Shore has repaid the county the money he earned working that extra job while on duty, according to Weintraub.

Bucks County District Attorney Matt Weintraub had said that Shore had exercised poor judgment but decided not to fire him in part due to past performance, perhaps most notably as the lead prosecutor in the Cosmo DiNardo and Sean Kratz 2017 murder trial.
A 14-year-old is charged with making false reports of threats at two Quakertown schools, according to the Bucks County District Attorney s Office.
The DA s office said in a news release Monday that police charged a 14-year-old with making multiple false reports on the Safe2Say Something application, which prompted the Quakertown Community School District to have virtual classes at certain schools on those days.
The teen is charged with five counts each of making terroristic threats, false reports, disorderly conduct and false reports to the Safe2Say program, according to authorities. The terroristic threats charges are felonies.
The DA s office said the teen used the Safe2Say Something application, which is run by the Attorney General s Office, to make the false reports January through March. The teen targeted three others, and reported that they were going to harm themselves or others, the release states.

BENSALEM, PA A Bensalem woman s ex-boyfriend tried to shoot her new boyfriend with a shotgun, then texted her taunting her about the shooting, according to police.
Jerome Tyrone Jordan, 29, whose address is unknown, was arrested the day after the shooting, which happened in October, with dozens of bags of marijuana in his car, according to the Bucks County District Attorney s Office.
His internet search history also showed that he had recently looked up what kind of damage shotgun blasts cause, prosecutors say.
