We might have some closure on so-called “naked shark guy,” according to an Orlando TV reporter. The man is said to be a former New York City police officer named “Shawn,” and not Florida coach Jim McElwain.
The former police officer now lives in Upstate New York. David Pingalore of WKMG-TV told the Orlando Sentinel’s Mike Bianchi on his 96.9 The Game radio show the man is fearful for his life.
Pingalore said that he has received other photos from a friend of “Shawn.” He also told Bianchi that the picture was taken two years ago off the shores of Long Island.
