A police officer found the councilman lying in his back yard, injured and smelling of alcohol, after a witness to the crash followed the offending vehicle, according to a redacted SAPD report.
– San Antonio Councilman Clayton Perry is being investigated for his possible role in a hit-and-run crash Sunday night near his North Side home, sources tell KSAT.
But after speaking with the witness who described seeing an older white man get out of the vehicle, wearing similar clothing to what the officer saw Perry wearing, the officer wrote he believed Perry had left a crash scene without providing his information. The councilman’s Instagram page also shows him in a black Jeep Wrangler matching the description in the report.Police provided the redacted incident report by email at approximately 5:30 p.m. Monday but did not respond to KSAT’s follow-up questions.
A witness who saw the crash reportedly followed the Jeep to where it stopped and then returned to the crash scene to tell the driver of the Civic, who relayed it to the responding officer. The officer wrote that he observed Perry “to be slow to answer questions, confused about recent events of the evening, and once he was standing was very unsteady on his feet.” The officer called for an EMS unit but wrote that Perry was ultimately allowed to refuse medical care.
