Two of the six men who beat 20-year-old DeAndre Harris, an African-American, during the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Va. are still at large despite clear video evidence of their participation in the assault, the Washington Post reports.

Three are in prison — and a fourth entered an Alford plea last month — but the identities of "Sunglasses" and "Red Beard," as they've been dubbed, remain unknown. Declan Hickey, the Charlottesville detective handling the investigation, told the Post, "I’ve pretty much exhausted everything I can do with this case."
