A Pennsylvania prosecutor has resigned after admitting to working a side gig as a delivery driver while on the job.

The now-former First Assistant District Attorney for Bucks County Gregg Shore resigned Tuesday after he admitted in March to working for DoorDash, according to ABC 6. The Bucks County District Attorney’s Office confirmed to the Daily Caller that Shore was no longer at the District Attorney’s office.

Shore delivered food for DoorDash during regular business hours, according to the report.

“Due to personal circumstances, I worked a second job delivering food during the COVID pandemic,” Shore said, according to the report. Shore reportedly worked roughly three hours each week for the delivery service since March of 2020.

“I primarily worked a job at night and on weekends,” Shore said, according to ABC 6. “However, I made the incredibly poor decision to deliver during the workday at times. In doing so, I realized that I betrayed my boss, colleagues and most importantly the citizens of Bucks County.”

Shore made $125,000 yearly in his district attorney role, according to the Bucks County Courier Times. (RELATED: WATCH: Doordash Driver Unhappy With Her Tip Confronts Customer)

District Attorney Matt Weintraub said Shore used his accused vacation time to repay the county the money he earned working the Door Dash job, according to ABC 6. Shore was first demoted, according to Bucks County Courier Times, but has since resigned. His resignation goes into effect Wednesday, according to ABC 6.

“What he has done is indefensible, thoughtless, selfish and so stupid. It’s senseless,” Weintraub said during a March briefing.

Weintraub said Shore’s actions “demonstrated a lack of leadership,” according to NBC 10 Philadelphia.

“He also violated the trust that I, and other members of the District Attorney’s Office, and the people of Bucks County place in each of us. I have a duty to hold those who violate that trust accountable. No exceptions,” he reportedly said.

Weintraub said it would have been easier to simply fire Shore, but ultimately decided to demote Shore in light of his time in public service.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.
