The former NYPD deputy commissioner in charge of public information — who once called a Post reporter a “f—king scumbag” when asked for comment — has called it quits. Tarik Sheppard, a 21-year veteran of New York’s Finest, who also was caught publicly scuffling with his boss during a photo op, filed for retirement on Friday, law enforcement sources said. He is due to leave the force next month.
