Charlottesville

The University of Virginia has canceled its game against rival Virginia Tech scheduled for Saturday following the slaying of three football players.

It was a weekend to sing, to pray and to remember three UVA football players gunned down one week earlier.

The man accused of killing three members of the University of Virginia football team appeared in court Wednesday.

The University of Virginia Athletics Department announced Wednesday morning that the game against Coastal Carolina had been canceled.

During a Tuesday news conference, athletic director Carla Williams said a decision would be made soon and that decision will include coaches and the team.

Ahmad Hawkins was shocked to hear the news that three members of UVA’s football team – students Devin Chandler, Lavel Davis, and D’Sean Perry – had been shot and killed Sunday night.

The pandemic has inspired so much art in this country, but perhaps nothing quite so unusual as a film that will premiere on Halloween night in Charlottesville. Sandy Hausman reports on Desert Psalm – a collaborative work by five Virginia artists who traveled south in an RV with a cargo of bones.

An unusual investigation may have helped police in Charlottesville find the driver who hit a bicyclist on a busy city street, then left the scene. Angry citizens used security camera footage and social media to search.

A remarkable collection of portraits is on display at the University of Virginia and will soon begin a tour of schools, churches and community centers around the state. It shows about 100 African Americans who lived in central Virginia at the start of the 20th century.

Police officers in Albemarle County are the first in the state to try a new approach to training – a program that uses virtual reality and artificial intelligence to immerse them in thousands of different scenarios.
