11 people in custody after hourslong armed standoff on I-95 in Massachusetts Published Sun Jul 04 2021 21:58:15 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time) by Associated Press
WAKEFIELD, Mass. (AP) An hourslong standoff with a group of heavily armed men that partially shut down Interstate 95 ended Saturday with 11 suspects in custody, Massachusetts state police said.
The standoff shut down a portion of I-95 for much of the morning, causing major traffic problems during the Fourth of July holiday weekend. Authorities said the interstate is now reopened and the shelter-in-place orders for Wakefield and Reading were lifted.
The standoff began around 2 a.m. when police noticed two cars pulled over on I-95 with hazard lights on after they had apparently run out of fuel, authorities said at a Saturday press briefing.

There was an unusual situation Saturday morning that caused a huge standoff on I-95 in Massachusetts, starting around 2 a.m. local time.
Police found two cars pulled over on the road, after they apparently ran out of gas, and stopped to assist them.
In the cars were 11 heavily-armed individuals with rifles and pistols in military-style tactical gear. The men told the police that they were going to Maine from Rhode Island for “training.” They claimed to be from a group that “doesn’t recognize our laws” and refused to put down their weapons or comply with the authorities, which started a standoff with the police, with some of them taking off into the surrounding woods.
