protesters clashed with the LAPD as they attempted to stop the troubled City Council from voting on a new president Tuesday. A chanting mob of protesters called for halting the vote until Councilmembers Kevin de Leon and Gil Cedillo resign for their part in a 2021 meeting laced with crude, racist comments.A reporter even caught one protester - activist Joseph Williams - being manhandled by cops by the back of the neck as they tried to push them out of the council. Williams claimed afterward that he had been 'essentially brutalized by the LAPD.'
