(Video) One killed as car plows into counter-protesters at white power rally in downtown Charlottesville Virginia

This is really outrageous!  Area Cops needed to get a better handle on the situation for the protection of all protestors. 
This is not supposed to happen in any American city regardless of which side of the protests one is one.   

NY Post reports at least one person was killed when a car plowed into a group of counter-protesters at a white supremacist rally in Virginia on Saturday afternoon, authorities said.

Shocking video from the scene shows a vehicle zooming toward the crowd in downtown Charlottesville, VA. The car appeared to strike two other vehicles, sending protesters flying onto their windshields. Video showed blood spattered on the windshield of one car.

“I am heartbroken that a life has been lost here,” said Charlottesville mayor Mike Singer.

Witnesses said the driver – going about 40 miles per hour – rammed into the crowd on purpose.

“Yeah, it was intentional,” said a witness. “About 40 miles an hour, hit about 15-20 people, crashed into the two cars in front of it, and then backed up and sped away while cops were standing on the side of the road and didn’t do anything.”

Video showed the car backing away from the crash scene at high speed.

Local cops ordered people to clear the site of the incident while medics responded. At least 26 people were taken to hospitals, reports said.
