A video from a Los Angeles City Council meeting appears to show Councilmember Imelda Padilla make an obscene gesture to a member of the public, but she says she was fidgeting with a pen.
The public comment portion of Los Angeles City Council meetings are often unpredictable, with some going off topic or using the microphone to offend.
Video shot by Claros' 8-year-old daughter Valentina, who attended the meeting with her dad, appears to show Padilla flip off Claros while he spoke opposing a motion that he says has divided the Guatemalan and El Salvador communities. Raul Claros' daughter was filming her father speaking at the Los Angeles City Council as he questioned a gesture made by Councilwoman Imelda Padilla.
