2 Reston Women Injured In Charlottesville Attack: Report

RESTON, VA — Two women from Reston were struck by the car that plowed into anti-Nazi protesters in Charlottesville over the weekend, an incident that caused nationwide outrage.

The attack killed 32-year-old Heather Heyer from Charlottesville and injured many other people, including two women who traveled from Reston to Charlottesville to stand up to participants in a Nazi rally called "United the Right" on Saturday. Police have arrested James Fields of Ohio, a suspected Nazi, in connection with the attack after a Dodge Charger plowed into a group of protesters.

NBC Washington quoted Robin Fetter, who said she was friends with two people who were injured who were both from Reston.

“They were both hit by the car that everybody knows about today,” Fetter said according to NBC Washington. “Lisa did tell me that she was the one that bounced off the windshield. She broke her hand, and her wrist her right leg was broken.”

A total of 19 people were injured in the attack.
