Virginia Clash: White supremacist surrenders to police

A white supremacist wanted by police over his role in violent clashes at a rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, has handed himself in.

Christopher Cantwell, from New Hampshire, faces charges of illegal tear gas use and malicious bodily injury.

He appeared in a vice news documentary about the 11 August demonstrations.

He has admitted pepper-spraying a counter-protester but says he did so in self-defence.

Mr. Cantwell and dozens of others took part in a torch-lit parade through the University of Virginia shouting racist, Anti-semitic and Neo-Nazi slogans.
