Manny Pelaez snacks, rolls eyes during San Antonio council meeting on Gaza conflict
Councilman Manny Pelaez snacked, typed on his computer and rolled his eyes at a speaker as pro-Palestinian activists attending City Council's Wednesday meeting urged the body to pass a resolution calling for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas conflict. Pelaez's behavior drew criticism from speakers early in the meeting after he began typing on a laptop while Isabella Briseño, the public comment session's first speaker, addressed the dais. She was among those seeking a ceasefire resolution.
