One person was killed and 19 others were left injured as an over-speeding car slammed into counter-protesters in Charlottesville, an independent city in the Commonwealth of Virginia where a "Unite the Right" rally of white nationalist and other right-wing groups had been scheduled to take place.

In addition to the one death and 19 injuries in the car-ramming incident, the city said there were at least 15 other injuries associated with the scheduled rally.
