University of Virginia employee Tyler Magill, the man who reportedly chased Unite the Right rally organizer Jason Kessler away from a press conference while yelling, “Her name was Heather,” is currently fighting for his life in ICU.

According to University of Virginia Professor Siva Vaidhyanathan, Magill sustained serious injuries after a rallygoer attacked him with a torch on Friday. He was apparently trying to defend the students when a torch-wielding neo-Nazi assaulted him.

Magill later suffered from a stroke, which his colleagues believe was a delayed result of the attack.

“Tyler Magill, vanquisher of Charlottesville Nazis, suffered a stroke on August 15,” reads the description on a GoFundMe page his friends have set up for his medical treatment and bills. In 10 hours, Magill’s colleagues were able to raise $41,478 of their $50,000 goal.

If nothing else, a plaque should be erected: Here, Mr. Magill ran off a Nazi!
