Joe Arpaio, the 80-year-old sheriff of Maricopa County, Ariz., might bill himself as “America’s Toughest Sheriff,” but he couldn’t escape a broken shoulder following a fall today.

Naturally, the hate tweets began to pour in.
So it appears Sheriff Joe Arpaio done tripped fell and broke and arm. So much for being strong arm of the law. #KarmaticFall #JoeElpayaso

Joe Arpaio fell and broke his arm today. He said there are no suspects yet, but added, "It's probably a Mexican's fault."

Hmm, Joe Arpaio fell & broke his arm today. Now, if only he could do that a few more times …

Arpaio is expected to back at work within a matter of days.
Maricopa Co. Sheriff Joe Arpaio, happy he broke his left shoulder because he "needs his right arm for his Smith & Wesson & his Smith Corona"
