FARGO (KFGO) - A Fargo family has disowned an adult son who attended a gathering of white supremacists that turned violent over the weekend in Charlottesville, Virginia. One woman was killed when she was struck by a car during a protest and two state police officers died when the helicopter they were in crashed.

Pearce Tefft says the family considers the actions of 30 year-old Peter Tefft "vile, hateful and racist.

Peter Tefft, appearing on KFGO "News & Views," said he does not consider himself a white supremacist.
