AZUZ: A state of emergency was declared over the weekend in the U.S. state of Virginia. What that does is speed up the help that's needed to a particular area. It could be after a natural disaster, it could be after an outbreak of violence.
Tensions were high Saturday in the city of Charlottesville. Officials there were planning to remove a statue of Robert E. Lee, a Confederate general in the Civil War, from a city park. A protest was planned.
The Ku Klux Klan, neo-Nazis and other white supremacists took part. They called the event the Unite the Right Rally, but it never really got started. A counterprotest had also gathered that day. Left-wing demonstrators and anarchists 1 joined it. And the two sides started fighting each other.
Punches were thrown. Pepper spray was used. At least 15 people were injured. The violence became deadly when a car was driven into the crowd of counterprotesters, killing 2 one person and injuring 19 others. The suspected driver was arrested.
Two Virginia state troopers were also killed when their helicopter, which had been monitoring Saturday's events, crashed into a woody area nearby. Officials didn't immediately know what caused that. On Sunday, church leaders and political leaders in Virginia and Washington, D.C. spoke 3 out against the violence and hatred 4 in Charlottesville.
