Flowers decorate a memorial for Heather Heyer, who was killed when an avowed white nationalist rammed his car into a crowd of counter protesters during a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville two years ago today.
About 20 people gathered Monday afternoon for a moment of silence at the site where an avowed white nationalist plowed a car into a crowd of people, killing 32-year-old Heather Heyer and injuring dozens more. Flowers and signs decorated a memorial to Heyer.
The Aug. 12, 2017, rally drew a mix of violent far-right extremists. Brawls broke out with anti-racism protesters, and authorities eventually forced the crowds to disperse. The car attack came later as peaceful counterprotesters were marching through downtown.Other events marking the second anniversary included a ballet performance and a worship service.
