Two sisters injured in Saturday's violence in Charlottesville, Va., are suing suspect James Alex Fields Jr., rally organizer Jason Kessler, and more than 20 alt-right and neo-Nazi groups for $3 million.

In their lawsuit, Micah and Tadrint Washington say they were injured when Fields plowed into a crowd of counter-protesters, Reuters reports. The sisters say they weren't involved in the demonstrations but were on their way home from visiting a friend when Fields' car slammed into theirs.
