Mike Bisagno, the president of the IAFF Boise Fire Local 149 Union, retweeted a video that was taken in Boise Sunday that called out a man for being racist.

The Twitter user who posted the video claimed in her caption that the man was saying "hail hitler" and making racist gestures. The man was also wearing a Local 149 t-shirt.

Bisagno retweeted the video less than 24 hours later to disassociate the man from the union.

"This person is not a member..." Bisagno wrote. "Nor is he an employee of the Boise Fire Department."
