The men, identified to be from Rhode Island, New York, and Michigan, were arrested Saturday after an hours-long standoff with police. According to Massachusetts State Police, the men were armed and dressed in military fatigues and body armor, though none had a license to carry firearms, and claimed to be traveling to Maine to conduct “training.” Police recovered three AR-15 rifles, two pistols, a bolt-action rifle, a shotgun, and a short barrel rifle.

The situation began to unfold in the early morning hours Saturday, July 3 on the stretch of I-95 in Wakefield, Massachusetts, just north of Boston.
As a result, I-95 was shut down for several hours.
Authorities initially had taken two of the suspects in military-style uniforms into custody after they were observed refueling their vehicle in Wakefield overnight. The others fled into the woods, starting the standoff, authorities said.
Just before 11 a.m., Saturday, Massachusetts State Police said, seven other suspects on the highway were taken into custody by MSP Special Tactical Operations Team and are being transported for booking.
