“Sunglasses” and “Red Beard” are the most visible of DeAndre Harris’s six assailants. But their identities remain unknown 18 months after the Unite the Right rally.
Two of DeAndre Harris’s attackers — dubbed “Sunglasses” and “Red Beard” — remain at large 18 months after the parking garage beating in Charlottesville. By Ian Shapira Ian Shapira Enterprise reporter covering the Washington region and beyond Email Bio Follow March 3 at 8:30 PM CHARLOTTESVILLE — One man was sporting a red, bushy beard. The second man, blond-haired, was wearing sunglasses and a tucked-in white, long sleeve shirt.
But the assault on Harris also came to define the racial violence unleashed that day. The sight of a white nationalist mob setting upon a black man evoked images from the Jim Crow era, particularly a 1961 front-page newspaper photo showing Ku Klux Klan members in Birmingham, Ala., pummeling a black bystander.
Harris, who is now 21 and works for a car dealership, declined to be interviewed for this report. The day after the rally, he returned to the parking garage for an on-camera interview with Zach D. Roberts, the freelance photojournalist whose wide-angle shot of the attack became its definitive image. Two more men joined: Borden, an 18-year-old high school dropout clad in a helmet that said “Commie Killer,” and Ramos, a member of an anti-government Georgia group. Borden smacked Harris with a large wooden plank. Then, Ramos struck Harris on the ground with his fist.
Then, he posted a photo of Red Beard and wrote, “WHO IS THIS MAN with the red beard? He committed a violent felony. . . . I’M FURIOUS.”
