Council task force on May Day melee

The task force of City Council members looking into the events on May 1 at MacArthur Park will return to the scene this week when it holds its first meeting.
The panel, co-chaired by Councilmen Jack Weiss and Ed Reyes, has scheduled its first meeting for 6 p.m. on Monday at Charles White Elementary School near MacArthur Park.
"Councilman Reyes thought it was important that our first session be in the area so the people most affected could testify," Weiss said.
Weiss said the initial meeting is designed to let the panel be updated on the progress of the various inquiries from the start and as the City Council considers any changes in police policy.
