US authorities are investigating the violence stemming from a white nationalist rally a day earlier that killed one person, injured more than 30, and challenged US President Donald Trump's leadership.
The unrest in the southern college town presented Mr Trump with a domestic crisis, with many on both left and right criticising him for waiting too long to address it and then, when he did so, failing to explicitly condemn the white-supremacist marchers who ignited the melee.
"Absolutely we are going to have further demonstrations in Charlottesville, because our constitutional rights are being denied," said Jason Kessler, identified by civil rights groups as a white nationalist blogger. He did not specify when.
Mr Kessler organised the 'Unite the Right' rally in Charlottesville against a plan to remove a statue to Confederate war hero Robert E. Lee from a park, saying those who came in support will not back down.
