San Antonio City Councilman Clayton Perry won't seek re-election

District 10 City Councilman Clayton Perry, who's facing drunken driving and hit-and-run charges, won't seek reelection, according to the Express-News. On Tuesday, Perry told a gathering at the Northeast Senior Center that he won't run for a fourth term and expressed remorse for his actions, the daily reports, citing a volunteer at the facility. District 8 Councilman Manny Paláez also told the paper Perry plans to issue a formal statement Thursday saying he won't run again. The news comes after weeks of speculation whether the embattled conservative would seek another term following a traffic collision that grabbed national headlines. Police accuse Perry of fleeing the scene of a Nov. 6 car crash in Northeast San Antonio.
