The Charleston riot occurred on March 28, 1864, in Charleston, Illinois, after Union soldiers who were home on leave and local Republicans clashed with local anti war Democrats known as Copperheads. By the time the violent confrontation had ended, six Union soldiers and three civilians were killed and twelve others were wounded in what was one of the deadliest Civil War riots in the North.
