FBI moves in on occupiers in Oregon
Above is almost five hours of a recording of the live streaming of conversations with the last four hold-outs in Oregon as the FBI moved in on them Wednesday evening. It’s actually quite fascinating.
The FBI on Wednesday evening moved in on the last four occupiers at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, apparently placing armored vehicles around their camp.
Besides David Fry, 27, of Ohio, the encampment includes Jeff Banta of Elko, Nevada, and Sean and Sandy Anderson of Riggins, Idaho.
“Come out with your hands up,” a law enforcement official was heard saying.
In a statement, the FBI said one of the occupiers rode an ATV outside their encampment at 4:30 p.m. When FBI agents tried to approach the driver, he returned “at a high rate of speed” to the camp. Agents then moved into position ahead and behind “the area where the occupiers are camping.”
